UC Berkeley ExtensionAny blogger worth his or her salt has a Google Alert set to the title of their respective blog.  Today I was referred to a brand new course at UC Berkeley on Disruptive Leadership.  The abstract is below.

Managers work in a world where expectations are off the charts, commitments are tenuous, priorities shift, and responsibility is given with marginal authority. In this highly interactive course, learn proven disruptive leadership practices to keep your customers out of harm’s way, leverage personal strengths, stimulate creative solutions, and inspire innovation. Learn how to apply out-of-the-box management techniques to solve performance problems, promote creativity, encourage innovative thinking in your team, improve communication, and unleash your personal potential.

A pretty good description of disruptive leadership from a management development perspective.  Disruption can always be a good thing.
