Developing Socially Just Business Leaders Leadership is the key to developing a resilient organization. Through exceptional teaching and real world applications, the Doctor of Applied Leadership program prepares managers to take on a leadership role within their communities and organizations. Participants develop as effective leaders and coaches by examining their personal skills, beliefs and value-sets as they relate to those with whom they interact. Insight into managerial and leadership effectiveness increasingly points to emotional intelligence and congruence. Knowing the self enables leaders to better know their employees and effectively lead. Success in the program is defined as higher performance as a leader and coach in the workplace.
