BUS 464 Design of Effective Teams and Organizations
Organizational and team effectiveness depends upon the key components of a company’s system and more importantly, the synergy among these building blocks. Using the Congruence Model, students will initially gain an in-depth understanding of critical organizational components including strategy, structure, tasks, culture, behavior, and human resources. Subsequently, students will be equipped with effective design methods, tools, and techniques that help to arrange various components in a synergistic manner to provide outcomes that align strongly with external demands. From a general perspective, the concepts in this class encourage students to explore factors that lead to a congruence between strategy and collective performance.
