Why minor in leadership?
Some people are natural leaders. Even if you are, though, formal training can enhance your innate abilities and make you more cognizant of organizational structures and how you can influence other individuals. You'll take classes that explore leadership, communication and ethics in a variety of situations, including health care, religion and science.
