The course serves as a key part of student leadership development integrated into all four years of a student's education and their roles within the organization. The curriculum focuses on skills, character, and critical thinking in leadership contexts. The desired effect is to engage students where they are in their development and to train them in the practice of effective, professional team leadership within their teams and the larger organization. Assessment strategies such as reflection, journaling, self-assessment, and practiced application of course material are designed to fit into students' leadership experiences so students apply what they learn in an immediate, relevant context.

Because effectiveness is vital in the military, it is important to understand the factors supporting optimal conditions for effective outcomes. Leader and organizational integrity are two forms of promise keeping influencing productive and counterproductive behavior. We analyzed the effect of leader behavioral integrity and unit psychological contract support on extrarole behaviors, finding differential effects for type of integrity. These results are discussed in terms of impact with theoretical and practical implications.

Our paper provides a set of ideas linking training cognitions with training outcomes. In addition, we support our propositions with a preliminary empirical test, based on a sample

There is less research directly dealing with the motivation to lead as compared to studies addressing leadership competencies. Given the wide variety of the performance of leaders in terms of effectiveness, ethical behavior, and failure, why someone wants to lead is a crucial question. This study expanded upon Chan and Drasgow’s (2001) motivation to lead construct by examining narrowing personality traits, the specific influence of locus of control and self-monitoring, and considered the influence of potential mediation of core self-evaluation. The analyses indicated that there are differential predictors for individuals regarding the motivation behind choosing to lead and the possible implications of that leadership.
