If you want to advance your career in localization and become a program manager or a people manager, having a solid foundation and understanding of leadership skills is key. In this class, we will cover different types of leadership, practice leadership presence, model behaviors of high-trust leaders, build credibility, learn how to manage without authority, influence up and across the organization, persuade others, solve problems and conflicts, build and maintain networks and navigate organizational politics.

The Leadership for Localization Management class builds upon the Program Management class, which is its main prerequisite. Please contact Professor Klaudinyova if you would like to at least audit the class but don’t fulfill the prerequisites.
