Catalog

A critical source of competitive advantage often comes having the leadership skills necessary for composing, orchestrating and developing an organization’s human capital. However, complex issues such as dynamic technology, demographic changes in the labor force, virtual work environments, and global business expectations (to name only a few) have increased the challenges of effectively managing a workforce. This course explores the human capital resource emergence process where the knowledge, skills and abilities (KSAs) of individuals are transformed and amplified into a valuable organizational resource. Specifically, we evaluate leadership behaviors that can enhance the success of an organization's human capital. This course has key themes: (1) Identifying critical aspects of the human capital resource emergence process, and (2) explore what leader behaviors and actions can impact elements of the social environment (i.e., how employees act, think and feel). By focusing on leader behavior development, the course prepares managers to handle the complexity of managing human assets successfully, in light of an increasingly complex work environment. Upon completion, participants will possess the key leader behaviors and skills that will help them achieve a productive and engaged workforce.
