Leadership & Innovative P

MIA & MPA Leadership and Management II Core. This course examines leadership and innovative policy making through interdisciplinary analysis, reflective discussion, and applied case studies. Students will explore key themes such as the character and context of leadership, the role of institutions, the use of behavioral tools like “nudging,” and the dynamics of leadership during crises. Through group research projects and critical evaluation of policy leaders, including figures such as Zelenskyy, Yellen, Merkel, or Macron, students will assess how leadership choices shape major policy outcomes. The course prepares students to lead effectively across government, non-governmental, and private sectors by strengthening their analytical, strategic, and reflective leadership capacities.
