The effectiveness of organizations depends heavily on how organization manages its people. The success of an <br> individual manager similarly depends on how he or she manages, interacts with, and relates to people. This <br> course provides in-depth look at the people side of organizations. We will study how employees impact the <br> effectiveness of their organization and how organizations and their managers impact the attitudes and behaviors <br> of their employees. In this course you will learn how organizations can improve their effectiveness through better <br> management of people and how individual managers can be more effective and successful in their careers. <br> <br> The course has two basic objectives: <br> The first one is to provide you with frameworks for understanding critical issues related to organizational behavior <br> and understanding of how to apply those frameworks. The second one is to help you identify how you yourself can <br> be more effective in organizational settings. To accomplish course objectives we will rely on a variety of activities. <br> Learning will be interactive; each session will require your active participation. <br> <br> Course Overview:<br> As a general approach, I assume that the opportunity and responsibility for learning are in your hands. How <br> successful you will be in this course is significantly affected by your activity and pro-activity in our learning <br> community. We will achieve the course goals through reading, cases, exercises, role-plays, analytical discussions <br> and presentations. The structure of the class will be highly interactive. To make this happen, each student must <br> participate in the class activities. Extensive preparation, analysis and discussions will help you understand the <br> major topics and issues.
