This course examines how entrepreneurial firms can develop human resource practices and strategies to sustain their vision, grow their businesses, and create value for customers, shareholders, and employees. The first half of the course will be devoted to exploring the distinctive challenges entrepreneurial firms encounter in aligning organizational goals and human resource strategy and practices. Among those practices are staffing, recruitment and selection, compensation, and employee motivation. The second half of the course will explore these issues further in the context of key organizational phases ranging from firm foundings, the transition from entrepreneurial to professional management, the development of "intrepreneurship" in existing organizations, and the spin-off of the new corporate ventures. Offered as ENTP 425 and LHRP 425.

The aim of this course is to enhance individual as well as organizational performance and competitive advantage through "principled negotiation", "win-win bargaining", and collaborative as opposed to competitive approaches to team problem solving. The context crosses all types of business, government and non-governmental organizations. Concepts, strategies, and models of negotiation are drawn from social psychology, economics, labor relations, and legal literature. Students will also be introduced to mediation (both as mediators and negotiators); to the complex art of advocacy and to the latest alternative dispute resolution (ADR) techniques. There is heavy reliance on simulations and role play to enhance student understanding of key course concepts. Although immediate skill enhancement through practice is a goal, students understanding of key concepts will enable them to continuously improve their insights and skills long after the course is concluded. There is no prerequisite for the course.

Students will examine the processes of alternative dispute resolution (ADR) through reading materials, videotapes, guest lectures, and simulation exercises. Particular emphasis will be given to the interaction of lawyers and clients in business negotiations and in litigation. Negotiation, arbitration, mediation, the summary jury trial, and the mini-trial will be examined. The class will also cover impediments to ADR, such as lack of understanding or hostility on the part of clients or lawyers. Offered as LAWS 351 and LHRP 451.
