Description
Content
How come some leaders are followed, whilst others are not? What does it
take to be a great leader? The purpose of the PhD course in ‘Authentic
Leadership’ is to contribute to PhD training through discovering as well as
nurturing and developing leadership authenticity skills among PhD researchers.
The course will provide PhD researchers with theoretical and conceptual
understanding of the concept of Authentic Leadership as well as train students
in critical reflection and application of authentic leadership in different
contexts.
Learning objectives
The PhD
course is a practical course, not a textbook course on leadership authenticity.
PhD researchers have the possibility to network with others on an international
level. Giving the leadership authenticity concept an empirical value, this PhD
course will educate researchers on how to be true to one-self and to open up
career choices and potential.
