In today's organizations, work is increasingly organized around teams of various kinds with varying complexity. Teamwork is universally regarded as a key driver of organizational effectiveness and profitability. Yet, teams are notorious for being dysfunctional. Interpersonal conflict, politics, miscommunication, and poor leadership frequently prevent teams from being better than the sum of their parts.
Interpersonal Dynamics at Purdue University can provide the additional skills you need to be a more effective leader in your organization, learning to influence everyone around you, no matter what role you play on the team. This course is held in the Krannert Center for Executive Education and Research.
