July 10Reposition your military leadership skills and gain new competencies to transition to civilian organizations.
The Master of Science in transformational leadership is designed for students with military experience who want to build on and maximize their leadership training and skills to transition to corporate, nonprofit, or government organizations. Each course offers you practical experience by using workplace scenarios to apply your strategic thinking and decision-making skills in both group and individual activities with civilian organizations. You "learn by doing" and graduate better prepared for workplace opportunities.
The program provides hands-on experience with transformational leadership strategies and techniques that will enable you to effect change at the individual, group, and organizational levels and prepare you for positions in civilian organizations. You'll utilize theories and concepts in leadership in a civilian context, focusing on the dynamics of leadership and developing skills in communication, strategic planning and management, team building, conflict resolution and mediation, fiscal and performance-based decision-making, change management, project management, and organizational learning.
