Development of a Leadership/Management Seminar Model for Bakersfield College.
Nusz, Phyllis Jane
A leadership/management seminar model was developed for use at Bakersfield College (BC), California, as a pilot program to provide training for professionals and management-level employees in business and industry. The seminar model was based on work with noted professors and theorists in the field of leadership and management; a literature review; an analysis of evaluations from the 1984 Leadership/Management Seminar held at the University of Illinois; and interviews with students, professionals, and individuals working in business and industry who had expressed interest in leadership/management training at BC. The instructional content of the resulting seminar model consisted of 23 separate units covered in an intensive 2-week program, focusing on topics such as "Women as Leaders,""The Career Patterns and Life-Cycle Choices of Professional Women,""Thinking on Your Feet,""Educational Law,""Personality and Managerial Styles,""Managerial Planning and Budgeting,""The Components of Leadership,""Interpersonal Effectiveness,""Automation,""Improving Written Communication," and "The Politics of Financial Planning." The report includes information on the seminar budget, factors such as housing and food services, and reactions to the model at BC. A two-page reference list and a five-page bibliography are included. (LAL)
