The area of concentration in agricultural leadership includes breadth in terms of a broad overview of leadership and depth in the areas of personal, team, and organizational leadership taught in an agricultural and natural resources context. Students learn how both non-profit (e.g. cooperative extension, international development agencies) and for-profit (both small-scale and large multinational agribusinesses) organizations are influenced by leadership, as well as specific principles and concepts regarding personal, dyadic, team, managerial, and executive leadership. The coursework is conceptualized around a leadership process model and how leadership traits and skills are utilized through core leadership behaviors (supportive, charismatic, directive, reward and punishment, and participative). The development of human capital undergirds this important field of study.
