ORGL 580 - Implementing Change Initiatives

 
A study of how leaders initiate and implement change in organizations. Students will learn to identify opportunities or necessities for change. They will examine how individuals internalize the process of change, how change affects organizational energy, how conditions for change are created, and how change initiatives are presented. They will develop the capacity to propose and implement change initiatives that are aligned with the organization’s purpose and values. In a team project, which serves as the capstone project for the program, students will demonstrate their capacity to envision and initiate change in an organizational context.
