Overview of class

In this course, a variety of theories and research projects that focus on how organizational change can be managed will be presented. At its core, organizational change management is about implementation of new ideas and practices. Because organizational change might be focused on a micro and macro level, we will examine perspective that focus on how an individual's attitudes and behavior might be altered as well as how an organizations policies and practices might be changed. Consequently, we will focus on material related to persuasion, bargaining and negotiation, and organizational campaigns. These theories will be drawn from a variety of disciplines including organizational behavior, industrial relations, political science, social psychology, and communication. Although the primary method of teaching will be lecture, students are encouraged to ask questions and offer examples.
