Description
Leaders in all areas must navigate several, often-competing
relationships, including administration to student; administration
to employee; employee to employee; administration to bargaining
unit; student to employee; and school or business to public in
general. Student will first examine generally the available methods
of managing risk, like courts, insurance, and policy-making. Each
relationship is then analyzed with particular attention to the risks
presented, the law that applies to the relationship, and the most
efficient - efficiency being judged from several perspectives -
means of managing the risk. Some emphasis is placed on
human-resources issues because they transcend many relationships.
Broad use is made of actual cases and real-life scenarios.
