The Role of Transformative Curricula in Leader Education and Development

This panel symposium will engage participants and those attending in discussion and debate regarding the need for, and role of, Transformative Curricula (i.e., values and character development) in management/leadership education. Participants will discuss best practices, and exchange ideas about how to integrate values and character development within a diverse array of courses, topics, and learning activities. The panelists include educators with a combined total of over 75-years of leadership experience in both public and private contexts. Panelists will address the topic of Transformative Curricula through three interrelated themes: 1) innovative pedagogy that incorporates real-world scenarios; 2) academic courses that leverage reflective writing and mentorship; and 3) the utilization of technology to deepen, extend, and create shared learning experiences.
