Power and Influence examines the bases of subunit and individual power in organizations and the means by which subunit and individual power is translated into influence. The course assumes that leaders sometimes must acquire power to be effective, but recognizes that leaders do not always use power in the interests of the organization. Thus, the course explores the positive and negative effects that power and its use can have an organizational effectiveness and in the process considers the ethics of power and influence. The course also recognizes that leaders are not the only organization participants who acquire power and exercise influence in organizations. Thus, the course focuses not just on leaders but also middle level managers and lower level employees. The course's most basic premise is that managers at all levels of the organization can improve their effectiveness (both in pursuit of their own and their organization's interests) if they better understand how power is accumulated and used in organizations. Class sessions are devoted to discussing case studies in light of theoretical arguments advanced in readings.

See Notes 2 0 70 0 MGV 490A 001 80754 7849083 Decision making is a constant task in everyday life, yet decision making is especially important in organizations as our decisions not only affect us but they also affect other members of the organization, the broader organization, outside stakeholders, and more. This course thus seeks to provide an overview of decision-making from a psychological and behavioral decision theory perspective. The content of this course relies heavily on well-established basic research, as students will learn the basics of a variety of decision and cognitive biases as well as the basics of cognition and information processing. Although many of the decision processes and mechanisms that we learn apply to many different domains, the class sessions will focus on four domains of decision making: (i) risk and decision making, (ii) persuasion and decision making, (iii) ethical decision making, and (iv) well-being and decision making. In concert with the lectures and interactive discussions, together we will learn how these various decision processes and phenomena apply to our workplace experiences and how they can inform initiatives to improve decision processes.
