1 LEADERSHIP AND COMMUNICATION SKILLS DEGREE: BACHELOR IN BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION DEGREE COURSE YEAR: 1 ST 1º SEMESTER 2º SEMESTER CATEGORY: BASIC COMPULSORY OPTIONAL NO. OF CREDITS (ECTS): 3 LANGUAGE: ENGLISH 1- SUBJECT DESCRIPTION We can define "leadership" organizationally and narrowly as "the ability of an individual to influence, motivate, and enable others to contribute toward the effectiveness and success of the organizations of which they are members". Organizationally, leadership directly impacts the effectiveness of costs, revenue generation, service, satisfaction, earnings, market value, share price, social capital, motivation, engagement, and sustainability. Good organizations convey a strong vision of where they will be in the future. As a leader, you have to get your people to trust you and be sold on your vision. Using leadership skills and being honest and fair in all you do, will provide you with the ammo you need to gain their trust. Although you have the vision, how to create effective teams is a challenge in every organization. Work environments tend to foster rugged individuals working on personal goals for personal gain. Typically, reward, recognition, and pay systems single out the achievements of individual employees. Appraisal, performance management, and goal setting systems most frequently focus on individual goals and progress. Promotions and additional authority are also bestowed on individuals. Given these factors, is it any wonder that teams and team work are an uphill battle in most organizations. In this program we will focus in the information, tools and techniques you need to develop team work and effective work teams in any organization. Our roll as leaders is to create a work culture that values collaboration. In a teamwork environment, people understand and believe that thinking, planning, decisions and actions are better when done cooperatively. People recognize, and even assimilate, the belief that none of us is as good as all of us. Managing the team relationship; but also the 1:1 relationship with all our collaborators; and last but not least, being able to manage yourself; will be the most important factors for success. In this program we will reflect on the dynamics, abilities and attitudes that will help you to guide people (including yourself!). This subject does not require the use of a laptop in class; nevertheless, if you want to bring your laptop, please contact your professor. Edited by the IE Publications Department. 1

8 5- EVALUATION SYSTEM (ORDINARY AND EXTRAORDINARY) Your final grade in the course will be based on both individual and group work of different characteristics that will be weighted in the following way: A. Class participation 30% B. Final group presentation & report 30% C. Personal Journal 40% TOTAL 100% A. CLASS PARTICIPATION Three main criteria will be used in reaching judgment about your class participation: Depth and Quality of Contribution: The most important dimension of participation concerns what it is that you are saying. A high quality comment reveals depth of insight, rigorous use of case evidence, consistency of argument, and realism. Moving Your Peers Understanding Forward: Great ideas can be lost through poor presentation. A high quality presentation of ideas must consider the relevance and timing of comments, and the flow and content of the ensuing class discussion. It demands comments that are concise and clear, and that are conveyed with a spirit of involvement in the discussion at hand. Frequency: Frequency refers to the attainment of a threshold quantity of contributions that is sufficient for making a reliable assessment of comment quality. The logic is simple: if contributions are too few, one cannot reliably assess the quality of your remarks. However, once threshold quantity has been achieved, simply increasing the number of times you talk does not automatically improve your evaluation. Beyond the threshold, it is the quality of your comments that must improve. In particular, one must be especially careful that in claiming more than a fair share of airtime, quality is not sacrificed for quantity. Finally, your attempts at participation should not be such that the instructor has to go looking for you. You should be attempting to get into the debate on a regular basis. B. FINAL GROUP PRESENTATION AND REPORT You are also expected to complete a project with your group and present it to the class. The project will give you the opportunity to reflect on a topic related to the program. More details of the presentation will be provided by the start of the course. C. JOURNAL Finally, you are also expected to complete a journal based on your learning of the Program. You will need to reflect on 3 questions: What have you learned What will you apply What is your experience applying your learning s RETAKE POLICY Each student has 4 chances to pass any given course distributed in two consecutive academic years (regular period and July period).
