MGMT351

Explores paths to growth through innovation in existing companies (rather than in a startup environment) with a focus on organizational effectiveness. The theory and practice of promoting and managing innovation are considered in the context of case studies and the most recent academic thinking on topics like organizational design, resource allocation, culture development, and “managing clever people.” The goal of the course is to prepare students to participate in, lead, and advise innovation teams to increase the likelihood of a desired corporate outcome.
