The field of project management is young and constantly changing. Companies seek to reduce development cycles while increasing the technological complexity of their products. Corporate downsizing has increased the average workload and reduced the resources available for project development. Sound familiar? This course will discuss the fundamental basis for scheduling and project scope difficulties, and provide tools for creating practical solutions. We will become more aware of why we encounter similar pitfalls with each new project. Discover that you are not alone in encountering a chaotic project life-cycle, the complexity people bring, and the reasons why our organizations are continuing to become more chaotic. This course will examine the new phase development of project management. We will use numerous disciplines to create a more dynamic and flexible project management methodology. These disciplines include Industrial Behavior, Psychology, Human Behavior, Chaos and Complexity, Organizational Behavior, and Systems Theory to name a few. As project managers, we face impossible schedules, unrealistic specifications, and limited budgets. As leaders we face personnel issues, motivation requirements and organizational issues. This course will provide insight and practical examples of the areas of knowledge needed to practice effective project management in today's dynamic work environment. Prerequisites: NONE.

This course is intended to improve your ability to determine whether, when, and how to execute collaborative strategies as part of your firms’ overall growth strategy. The last two decades have seen an explosion in collaborative activity between firms. As a result, it is likely that, regardless of your chosen career path, you will at some point either work for, help to establish, or compete with collaborative ventures. Managers considering collaborative activity face a range of issues: When should an interaction be structured as a joint venture, a contractual alliance, or simply as an arm’s-length contract? When should I prefer to collaborate with an external partner rather than doing the project entirely in-house? How can I best structure and manage this partnership? What can I do to prevent competition between partners? How do I evaluate whether a prospective partner is best for me? Prerequisites: MGMT 625 and MGMT 645.
