Leadership and Employee Engagement

SHOW FINAL EXAM SCHEDULE

Credit: 4 hours.

Strong leadership and employee engagement are fundamental to achieving positive organizational results. This course explores the relationship between leadership, employee engagement, and business outcomes. Rooted in organizational effectiveness capabilities, we will cover topics in the context of driving change and supporting strategic outcomes for the enterprise. We will explore theoretical models, specific methodologies and tactics that drive engagement. As a Human Resource leader, you will build skills in defining strong leadership, clarifying leadership expectations and building ‘visible and felt leadership.’ You will explore how to measure employee engagement and diagnose common barriers to effective engagement. Students will utilize ‘gap assessments’ to be able to prioritize and recommend specific actions that will be supported with tools and techniques that ‘build’ employee ownership. Core concepts will include motivational constructs, employee engagement surveys, leadership interventions, visible and felt leadership, large group engagement, metrics, management review, process mapping, WorkOut/Kaizen, Appreciative Inquiry and other practical applications.

4 graduate hours. No professional credit. Prerequisite: Restricted to students in the online MHRIR program (10KS0364MHRU).
