Organizational Behaviour & Development: Strategic Management Certificate

Strategies fail when organizations misread how people, groups and culture actually behave. This program connects organizational behaviour with organization development as tools of strategic management. It covers individual behaviour (personality, perception, motivation), group dynamics, power and politics, culture and structure, and then the OD process: diagnosing organizations with models such as McKinsey 7S, Weisbord’s Six-Box and Burke-Litwin, action research, choosing interventions, and evaluating impact. Cases reflect Gulf organizations undergoing restructuring, mergers, nationalisation and culture change.
