This research project was conducted to support Dr. Irene Lopatovska’s initiative to redesign a management + leadership course for information professionals at the Pratt Institute School of Information. To inform the course curriculum, we conducted a content analysis of similar course offerings at other iSchools and their syllabi, reviewed the literature on curriculum development in information disciplines, and surveyed and interviewed information professionals, iSchool faculty, and students to prioritize the topics to be covered. We compiled the findings of this research in a poster to share with the rest of the Pratt iSchool community, and these findings will be instrumental in designing the curriculum for a course focused on developing the next leaders and movers and shakers of various information industries.
