Leadership and Organizational Behavior

Organizations are where most professional life happens, and understanding how they work and how leaders shape them is one of the most transferable skills any professional can develop. This course integrates the study of organizational behavior and leadership theory, examining how individuals, groups, and organizations function and how effective leaders influence all three levels. Students explore organizational structures, group dynamics, decision-making, and the psychology of individual behavior at work, alongside leadership theories, personal leadership development, vision, communication, diversity, and ethical climate. Drawing on case studies, self-assessment, and applied reflection, students develop both an analytical understanding of organizations and a grounded sense of their own leadership potential.
