This course will equip students with the management skills and tools to strategically plan and implement initiatives that further their intended positive impact. The course will help students develop a framework to move from a public problem they observe in the world and develop a results-driven approach to addressing it. Students will develop and apply an analytical toolkit and set of leadership best practices to manage for positive change, including: mapping their environment, strategic organizational planning, planning for results, and managing for results. In teams, students will create strategic and performance management plans for a public or non-profit organization that furthers a positive impact. These plans will be submitted as a group memo, and presented during class. Students will also complete an individual reflection paper.
