  Navigating Change: Skills and Strategies for Consultants and Managers --- What makes change agents effective? What practices, capabilities, and approaches enable organizations to transform themselves appropriately? This course addresses these questions with focus on change management tools and approaches. We study successful and unsuccessful change, explore factors that shape the outcomes of change agents' efforts, and review students' experiences with organizational change from a variety of perspectives. We also consider the challenge of timing change in fast-paced industries and explore what the systems thinking perspective offers change agents.
