SW 514 Leadership and Administration
Leadership and Management prepares students to assume leadership roles in human service organizations and social change systems. Framed within the context of today's challenges confronting social work managers, supervisors, community practitioners and administrators, students will develop organizational knowledge and leadership skills required in the development and management of agency structure, resources, workforce, and cultures of human services. The course will cover topics related to program and service planning, supervision, performance appraisal, budgeting, and leadership and organizational theory. The course also will examine ethical dilemmas inherent to administering social programs and managing human service agencies in the context of a market economy where federal and state budget cuts have created competition for scarce resources.
