Models/DecisnMakng4PositivChng
The course Models and Decision-Making for Positive Change employs an integral approach to topics of leadership and change theory from eastern and western perspectives. The course will include readings of leadership, change and management/ governing from classical Chinese texts from Art of Sunzi, The Book of Change, Tao Te Jing, Middle Way and Five Element Theory, etc. Meantime, we will apply knowledge of bankable leadership, emotional intelligence, mindfulness, positive psychology, etc. from the western point of view to real life practices. The course incorporate three phases of learning: acquiring knowledge from reading and discussion, producing mini-podcasts to analyze and reflect, and incorporating meaningful project-based learning to create further impacts in the community. This course turns intercultural knowledge into a meaningful action experiential project.
