The Leadership Studies major, as an interdisciplinary study program, must be studied in the context of another major. This seminar introduces how the curriculum of the Leadership Studies major, developed around a three-dimensional conceptual model exploring of leading, following, and organizational context, will enable students to design their own study plans for a double major by integrating the curriculum of the Leadership Studies major with another major. The seminar will also guide students on how to articulate a servant-minded paradigm of leading and following from biblical-theological and research-findings perspectives. Students will acquire the necessary knowledge, skills, and disposition to prepare them to meet the academic standards expected in the first and second year of the Leadership Studies program.
