Leadership & Management
If you’re entrepreneurial, people-focused, and ready to lead with purpose, the leadership and management concentration gives you the flexibility to explore your strengths while learning the language of business. Every business leader needs to understand how to read a spreadsheet, deliver a compelling sales pitch, balance a budget, and analyze data. Build a strong foundation of these essential business skills and then dive into focused courses on leadership theory, operations, and strategic management.
This concentration is ideal if you’re drawn to the big picture, interested in launching your own business, or simply want to keep your options open across a wide range of industries. You’ll graduate ready to motivate teams, manage people and processes with integrity, and bring wisdom and innovation to your workplace. With more elective space than any other business concentration, this degree allows you to tailor your education to your interests as you discover the part you play in God’s plan.
