Business Leadership Employment Mediation (2.0 units)

Managing conflict is a core competency requirement for anyone in a leadership role in the workplace. Every organization has conflict. Today’s workplace has an increased need for conflict management skills because there is more stress these days from doing more with less. There is more need for leadership skills for managing the diversity of cultures and generations in work groups. If not managed early, small issues can easily grow into big problems. How conflict is managed dramatically affects productivity, employee commitment, morale, and the bottom line.

Workplace Culture (2.0 units)

A person’s life story captures the essence of this course. Each student is a "culture of one" with myriad life experiences forming their unique perspective. When a student becomes an employee, they bring that unique perspective — a culture of one — to their job, thereby contributing to the "workplace culture." How does the "culture of one" fit into the workplace culture without losing each individual's unique perspective, yet at the same time contributing to the vision of the organization’s founders? This course explores the evolution of individual culture and how it impacts, and is impacted by, workplace culture.
