What LDR-4350 is really about

Cohen’s The Heart of Change Field Guide is the text, and the three modules are Deciding on Your Leadership Project, Working on Your Project and Concluding Your Project.

Projects must involve working closely with other people to bring about positive change; solo work does not qualify. Classmates review each other’s module papers and final papers, and those reviews count toward the grade.

What LDR-4350’s assessments ask for

The final project paper carries 35 percent, including 10 percent for peer review, three module papers 45 percent, including 15 percent for peer review, and four discussions 20 percent. The final paper runs 10 to 12 pages.

Where students lose points in LDR-4350

Points go on projects done alone, problems described without evidence, goals that cannot be measured, resistance described as stubbornness, results claimed without a baseline and final papers with no leadership lessons or plan to sustain the change.
