Section Title:
Inspiring Interacting Informin
Section Info:
Inspiring, Interacting and Informing- Secret Weapons of an Engineering Leader: Engineering leaders need to be technically proficient and knowledgeable. But the greatest leaders in engineering possess more than technical expertise to turn their ambitions and aspirations into reality. They display emotional intelligence, curiosity, a collaborative spirit, and a dedication to communicating their objectives and opinions clearly and concisely. This course will focus on building leadership skills through practice and peer-evaluation in a friendly, constructive atmosphere. Particular attention will be given to written and spoken communications, constructive dispute resolution, personal initiative, and entrepreneurial development for students who see themselves as future leaders of student organizations here at Illinois and in the workplace.
