BMAL 500
Organizational Behavior
Course Description
This course discusses managerial competence in understanding the human output of organizations from the viewpoints of individual, group, and organizational systems levels. Emphasis is given to assessing one’s personality and values and to applying course material to one’s work environment. (Formerly BUSI 500)
Rationale
Without wise application of organizational behavior, no manager can consistently manage effectively or efficiently. Such knowledge and ability is foundational to the Master of Business Administration program. It should also be anticipated that many of the topics presented in this course will be studied in much greater depth in subsequent courses. It is presupposed that those who know organizational behavior best are those who first understand their behavior individually, in teams, and in organizational structures. This course does not utilize groups; it focuses on the student individually.
I. Prerequisites
BUSI 561 or ACCT 511, BUSI 604
