dc.description.abstract | This descriptive study explored undergraduate student application of leadership
concepts and corresponding change in leadership behavior resulting from participation in a
co-curricular leadership development program. Students who completed workshops related
to effective group leadership contributed in focus group discussions regarding their
application of learned skills. Students discussed applying knowledge of leadership concepts
across the scope of their lives, both in and outside the classroom. This indicated a change in
leadership behavior. Concepts applied emerged in five major themes: (a) addressing and
managing conflict, (b) facilitating small groups, (c) appreciating and valuing diversity, (d)
utilizing collaboration, and (e) accepting shared leadership. Two minor themes also
emerged related to defining power and privilege and living with congruence. Implications
for practice and suggestions for future research were also addressed. | en_US |
