Course Description: To have a social impact and build a career of contribution requires influencing others. In other words, the ability to negotiation effectively. This becomes even more challenging without the benefit of authority. Negotiation is the science and art of securing agreements between two or more parties who are interdependent and who are seeking to maximize their outcomes. This course provides participants with the opportunity to develop their negotiation skills in a series of simulations and debriefings that address a variety of bargaining processes in the contexts of deal making and dispute resolution. Each simulation has been chosen to highlight the central concepts that underlie negotiation strategy. These concepts are the fundamental building blocks for developing a negotiation strategy, managing the negotiation process, and evaluating the quality of negotiation outcomes. Successful completion of this course will enable you to recognize, understand, and analyze essential concepts in negotiations and build strong business relationships. If you take advantage of everything that this course has to offer, you will be more comfortable and effective in your future negotiations.

MO 617: Developing & Managing High Performing Teams 1.5 credits (Fall B, Fri 8:30AM-6PM)
Course Description: Not surprisingly, people who are able to create high performing teams get better results at work and are more likely to get promoted. The most effective team leaders understand that their job is not to do the work of the team, but rather to design a team environment that enables the team to do its best work. This course is designed to provide you with perspectives and skills that will help you create high performing teams. Specific course topics include: Foundations of high performing teams; motivating teams, decision-making in teams; creating X-Teams (a type of team that typically gets better results than regular teams), managing team conflict and creativity; avoiding dysfunctional team dynamics; managing diverse teams; leading virtual teams; and understanding the characteristics of high-performing team leaders. The most effective team leaders understand their leadership style and how this affects team performance. Therefore, you will complete a self-assessment of your leadership style and receive feedback from 5 other people on your style as well. The course assignments include an individual paper in which you discuss what actions you will take to become a more effective team leader, as well as a team project in which you observe a team in action, identify the teams best practices and areas for improvement, and present your assessment to the class in a creative way.
