To meet the many leadership challenges in an ever-increasingly complex world, organizations need leaders and followers who can bridge traditional, professional, and disciplinary boundaries. There is a need for leadership today that can forge new teams to achieve together what no single individual can accomplish without the input and support of others. And that's where the real challenges to organizational leadership will be in the twenty-first century - building a socially responsible foundation for critical lifelong leadership skills, which will become more poignant as one's career develops over time.
The Master of Arts in Organizational Leadership at Mansfield University of Pennsylvania is an online program for providing advanced knowledge and enhanced leadership skills across a wide spectrum of disciplines and organizational settings, such as education, health care, business enterprises, social services, sports, arts, and so forth. Everyone at all levels of the organizational hierarchy requires skill and knowledge in the dynamics of leadership. Both leaders and followers are part and parcel of the same leadership process.
This program is designed primarily for practicing professionals seeking advanced knowledge and lifelong learning in leadership. Rather than provide a curriculum focused on analyzing and predicting future trends, the MA in Organizational Leadership focuses on creating a vision of the future we want, and learning how to respond quickly and decisively to new challenges as they unfold on the journey forward.
