    Course Description


    This subject is about building, running, and growing an organization. Subject has four central themes:

    • How to think analytically about designing organizational systems
    • How leaders, especially founders, play a critical role in shaping an organization's culture
    • What really needs to be done to build a successful organization for the long-term and
    • What one can do to improve the likelihood of personal success.

    Not a survey of entrepreneurship or leadership; subject addresses the principles of organizational architecture, group behavior and performance, interpersonal influence, leadership and motivation in entrepreneurial settings. Through a series of cases, lectures, readings and exercises students develop competencies in organizational design, human resources management, leadership and organizational behavior in the context of a new, small firm.
