The course specifically addresses professional written and verbal communications, concepts of strategy and organizational change management, organizational and human resource policies, and command relations.The curriculum explores, in depth, the role and responsibilities of the senior enlisted member within the organization, focusing on the four leadership competencies of Leading Self, Leading Others, Leading Performance and Change, and Leading the Coast Guard, with primary emphasis placed on the latter two categories.

The point paper will be the basis for your written and verbal communication work during the course. Students are required to work on assignments during and after class throughout the course.
