Description:

Management theory has evolved over time toward the idea that a participative work environment concentrates the efforts of all employees toward achieving the goals and objectives needed for the organization to be effective and resilient. Based on the principle that systems drive behavior, this course focuses on the relationships of people in an organization and the particular structure and culture that enable them to perform at high levels of accomplishment. Students investigate topics such as: organizational structure and culture; organizations as a mixture of interdependent functions and groups; organizations as dynamic systems; work environments; and approaches used to develop new models of organizing for improved performance.
