MG 7504 - Professional Development for Managers III

(1)

For Executive Fellows Program Only. This course explores concepts of change agency and Corporate Social Responsibility through community-based intervention. It provides tools of analysis and engagement in order to meet the diverse needs of multiple stakeholders and society while simultaneously creating value for the firm. Focused on the knowledge and skills necessary to recognize organizational interdependencies and to balance the increasingly complex interactions among competing stakeholder groups, students will begin work with Cohort Clients to assess current needs, analyze organizational dynamics, provide alternatives, and contract for services. Also, as an extension of the work completed in PDE-II, students will conduct organizational research for an independent Executive Project, including recommendations for action, which is presented to key stakeholder(s). Ongoing exploration of team and cohort dynamics, and the executive coaching/mentoring processes will continue throughout the semester.
