MGI 601LEC - Workforce Engagement

Our focus is on the critical contribution that the management of people and the development of the organization plays in the success of any organization through the exploration of topics in depth in seminar style format. While the topics are ones of great interest to HR leaders e.g. management of talent, developing leaders, career development, performance management, the perspective we take is of employees, managers, the organization and society, not exclusively HR. The emphasis throughout the course will be on the evolving theories and change utilizing students¿ own experiences in the world of work. Our goal is to discuss what is changing and what needs to change in workplaces for work to continue to be impactful and meaningful to employees and of value to organizations and society.
