MSOD 619 Foundations of Collaboration (2)


The purpose of this course is to introduce concepts and theories related to collaborations and other forms of trans-organization development. Continuing and expanding on the open systems and complexity perspectives developed earlier, collaborative systems describe the relationships, motivations, and drivers of effectiveness among organizations, governments, citizens, non-governmental organizations, and shared domains (e.g., poverty, climate change, water quality) of interest. Students are expected to reflect on their performance and learning in MSOD 618 Practicum 2: International OD and Large-Scale Systems Change (6)  as a contribution to their point-of-view portfolio, integrate those leanings into the framework explored in this course, and prepare for class and field assignments in MSOD 620 Trans-Organizational Systems and Strategy (6) .
