MGMT673 Foundation of Organizational Design

In this course, students study the differing variations of organizational design and when each type might be a useful and appropriate design that can lead the organization and its leaders to their desired goals. Other concepts/models that the student will be engaged in: integration, environmental complexity and dynamism, decision-making rights, employee commitment, job design as well as different styles of management. Practical action plans will be prepared and obstacles to success will be discussed. At the end of the course, the student will have worked through the important aspects of organizational design and redesign and be able to share work with others in an articulate manner. The outcome of this work could be applied to an organizational situation.
