OB475 Advanced OD Skills: Organization Interventions

This is an advanced skills course for the concentration of Organization Behavior. Students play the role of an internal or external consultant, bringing their skills to bear on real organizational problems or challenges. Students plan an organizational improvement or transformation and draft a proposal for an organization development intervention to support the change. Transformational, rather than incremental change will be defined, as well as the capacities needed to be change leaders and change agents to support people through profound change. Parallel to this work, each student develops a plan for personal or professional change and charts a course of action for this transition to the next stage of development.
