The PhD in Organizational Leadership is offered in a unique and convenient format in which students take a combination of online courses and intensive weekend classes. Online students take one or two online courses at a time and progress through the program in a 'cohort' fashion (i.e., with the same group of fellow students in each of their classes for the duration of the program). Online students also engage in two brief residencies (roughly three and a half days each) at our Chicago campus--providing an opportunity for face-to-face interaction and networking with fellow students from around the globe who bring a wealth of diverse leadership experiences and perspectives. At the first residency, which occurs during year one of the program, students meet with their personal faculty mentor and engage in focused seminars aimed at helping them formulate their dissertation topics and prepare for the research process. At the second residency which takes place in year three, students focus on completing their dissertations and associated processes.The program focuses on '21st century leadership,' preparing graduates for the rapid pace of change in today's organizations. Students gain a rich understanding of traditional theories of leadership and organizational effectiveness, as well as forward-looking perspectives related to globalization; ethics; diversity and multi-generational workforces; the impact of technology on work and workers; organizational design, including teams and teamwork; retaining and developing workforces; and managing organizational change.
