Learner goals and capabilities

Every workplace in all organizations is comprised of people. People have attitudes, behaviors, and actions often inter-connecting in expressions of leadership, job satisfaction and morale, happiness and conflict, creativity and chaos, productivity and puzzlement. These inner organization dynamics are often shaped by what's going on in the external world of technology, the economy, social changes, and public policy. The students of MBA 601 Human Interfaces can show you the gaps between expectations, actions, and communication be it related to morale, the effectiveness of your organizational structure and systems, and the powerful role your organizational culture plays. They will apply proven research and analysis models taught by their professor with experience in analyzing employee attitudes and actions in over 500 workplaces.
