Description
Summary:The development of students as leaders remains a central goal for institutions of higher education as evidenced by mission statements and the increased presence of leadership development programs on college campuses. However, researchers' use of general measures of leadership development rather than those tied to existing models has contributed to a scarcity of empirical studies grounded in the theory that informs leadership practice. Here, Dugan examines leadership development as well as the role of involvement in leadership learning using the social change model.
