This course integrates diversity and leadership themes while simultaneously broadening the literary exposure of students. While condensed readings from the classics of literature are used, the selection of excerpts has culturally diverse protagonists such as Mahatma Gandhi and Virginia Woolf, who confronted leadership challenges much like those encountered today. These writings continue to influence our thinking and assumptions about how to manage people. The readings are from the Hartwick Classic Leadership casebank and range from 14 to 40 pages in length.
