Navigating Organizations

3 credits · Fuqua School of Business

Smart quantitative analysis requires overcoming common cognitive biases as well as working effectively with others in the organization. This course builds on insights from behavioral sciences to help students meet these challenges and be effective analysts and managers. The course will primarily focus on two broad sets of questions. First, what principles can students draw on to analyze and improve performance in organizations? Second, what do an individual needs to do to be an effective leader and contributor to his/her firm that others respect and are willing to follow? This course is for MSQM: Health Analytics students.
