with a Track in Organizational Transformation

NOW ENROLLING STUDENTS IN ONLINE CLASSES FOR SPRING 2023

Today’s leaders must possess effective observational, analytical, communication, and problem-solving skills to move increasingly complex organizations forward. Wilmington College’s Master of Organizational Leadership program with a Track in Organizational Transformation (MOL-OT) will deliver the leadership experience and expertise you need for the next step in your career.

You will gain…
  • A human-centered approach to building a collaborative team environment, leading change, solving problems, and making decisions
  • An increase in self-awareness and an understanding of who you are as a leader
  • Skills that strengthen your emotional intelligence, interpersonal, and critical thinking competencies
  • An applied graduate degree that equips you with the knowledge and skills you need to lead initiatives that accomplish the mission of your organization, in the industry where you work
  • An understanding of organizations and business practices

The MOL program has a common core of courses, consisting of 15 semester hours. The core courses are designed to cover content that is vital to understanding organizations and business practices at the graduate level. Please refer to the Curriculum link for a full description of the MOL-OT courses.

In addition to the core courses, students pursue a MOL track. The Organizational Transformation (OT) track, consisting of another 18 semester hours, is the first MOL track to be offered on Wilmington College’s Cincinnati campus. Besides refining and developing the skills listed above, the OT track includes a mindfulness approach that is integrated across the track curriculum and that is intended to increase self-awareness and build the capacity for empathy, compassion, and ethical action. Refer to the Curriculum link for a full description of MOL courses.

The Immersive Learning Experience is the cornerstone of the MOL-OT program. In alignment with the values of Wilmington College, students are expected to engage with a social organization throughout four semesters in the program and contribute their expertise in developing plans that will assist the organization. Social justice organizations can include: (1) the external projects of for-profit companies engaged in and supporting community improvement or service projects, and (2) any not for profit that provides support for individuals or groups of individuals in overcoming obstacles in life. Given the intensity of the experience, students become involved with a social justice organization as soon as they begin the program.

The MOL-OT program is designed to be completed in four consecutive semesters, however the program can be completed on either a full-time or part-time basis.

Because our students often juggle many responsibilities while furthering their education, ALL MOL-OT courses are offered online, and even students completing this program on a full-time basis will only be meeting online one night a week. Join the program and learn with your professor and other students from wherever you are.
