    Description

    In this course, students will learn the foundations of Organizational Health, as defined through open and honest communication, an informed decision-making process, and the execution and accountability of business decisions in an organization. The premise of organizational health lies first in an individual’s ability to understand themselves and others in the various facets of work life – their individual work preferences, trust, accountability, and commitment – in order to optimize an organization's performance and drive a sustainable competitive advantage. Students will examine the dynamics of healthy and dysfunctional teams, explore individual work behavioral styles and learn how these impact team performance and communication. They will evaluate communication strategies, conflict resolution models, and strategies for building a cohesive and healthy team.
