A presentation by Dr. Steven Samuels
Inagural Visiting Fellow, UCCS Matrix Center
When attempting to create policy to instill cultural change, leadership often forgets that they only have one perspective: that of dominance. Without understanding the needs of disadvantaged organizational members, successes may be incidental and short-term gains may be derailed. We propose that if leadership incorporates the concept of privilege as a lens to focus their policy changes, results will be more aligned with their intentions, more successful, and more sustainable. Attempted changes at the Air Force Academy's after the sexual assault scandal of 2003 is used as a primary example.
Steven M. Samuels, Ph.D. is an Associate Professor in the Department of Behavioral Sciences and Leadership at the U.S. Air Force Academy, teaching psychological theory and application in a variety of courses. He was one of the original 12 civilians to integrate USAFA in 1993 and has been active publishing and working internally on issues of inclusion and pedagogy. As a fellow at The Center for the Study of Professional Military Ethics at the U.S. Naval Academy in 2001-02, he focused on ethical behavior, investigating the problem of individual ethical accountability in a situationist world. He works on leadership modeling, experiential leadership, and communication issues, having consulted for United Technologies in the area of interaction across organizational hierarchies and power differences. He has also investigated the effects of leadership efficacy in other areas such as freefall parachuting (where he is the only civilian to have earned jump wings at USAFA) and combat physical education classes. Steve served as a member of a hybrid military/academic team training Citadel cadets on issues of gender and racial integration in a military/academic environment. He has been invited to serve as an Honorary Visiting Scholar at the University of Colorado-Colorado Springs' Matrix Center for the Advancement of Social Equity and Inclusion where he will be continuing his research on diversity and social justice. Steve received his B.A. from Brandeis University, majoring in both psychology and philosophy, and his Ph.D. in social psychology from Stanford University, with a focus at the business school.
