MGT-322 Managing Across Differences

Throughout your career, you will be working and competing in a diverse, global environment. Even if you never take an international assignment, you will need to collaborate with others who differ from you in significant and sometimes challenging ways: culture, national origin, race/ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, religion, and social class. In this class we will learn about common dynamics that occur in diverse groups; explore the power of inclusion and the challenges to leveraging it; discuss relevant current events; research how issues and strategies related to inclusion vary across national cultures; and analyze the diversity/inclusion initiatives of local companies.
