MGT 3410 - Managing High Performance Teams
Teams are increasingly used in business to tackle more challenging issues that require a diverse set of skills. Strong teams require capable leadership, attention to process, innovative ideas, excellent communication, and an appreciation for different skills and work styles. While much is known about what makes some teams more successful than others, few people are trained in how to effectively create, build, and manage teams. This course focuses on learning and best practices in team formation, working on a team, and leading teams. Throughout the course students use readings, discussion, cases, action learning exercises, and team projects as a platform to dissect common team issues, and the strategies and tactics to overcome these challenges.
