Russell Cropanzano on his teams and leadership in organizations course:

This course focuses on the skills you will need to effectively lead and manage work teams. We explore different attributes necessary for leading work teams, so that you learn how to translate theories into specific competencies that will improve your ability to lead and manage groups. Much of the class is devoted to case studies and group exercises, in which students take on roles in workplace conflicts and discover strategies for success as they try to steer the outcome.
