Abstract: (15 Views)
- This short paper presents the results of an empirical study on leadership training that we conducted with the support of a private Mexican university; as such, it focuses on analyzing the educational and institutional implications of multivariate techniques.
- Through a multivariate analysis, we highlight the need to integrate both strategic and social-emotional skills training within an ethics-based framework.
- Students often view ethics education as purely conceptual; therefore, I believe that universities can steer ethics education toward a more practical approach and assess these competencies in practical or conflict-based scenarios.
- The ideas presented in this document also aim to serve as a call to higher education institutions and faculty to actively participate in the design and implementation of courses of action that enable students to move from the theoretical realm to strengthening their soft skills.
- Collaboration between universities and industry remains a viable option for implementing projects that help students tackle more realistic leadership situations and, at the same time, facilitate a more contextualized assessment of their progress.
