Organizational Behavior and Human Resource Management

Organizational life demands that humans find effective and satisfying ways to work together. This has never been more true on a global scale. The Organizational Behavior and Human Resources discipline's mission is to educate future managers and employees and to conduct cutting-edge research on topics that explore how human interactions can contribute to developing and sustaining effective and satisfying workplaces. Topics such as motivation, team dynamics, performance and feedback processes, leadership, gender issues at work, managing people within the internet environment, effective compensation strategies, and selecting the right employee for the right job are all addressed with our research and coursework.
