The present course offers an in-depth case-based discussion on the Advanced Topics in Organizational Behaviour. The course is designed to provide participants with a comprehensive understanding of the multifaceted individual and group behaviour dynamics within organizational contexts. As we navigate the world of business and professional environments, it becomes crucial to grasp the psychological, social, and cultural factors influencing decision-making, leadership, and overall workplace well-being. The course begins with dissecting the complex decision-making processes, highlighting the distinctions between rational and non-rational choices, and understanding the biases and heuristics that often sway managerial decisions. The course then transitions into leadership, delving deep into its various theories and applications, especially in the Indian context. Emotions, mood, and stress are integral to any workplace, and the present course aims to equip participants with tools and strategies to effectively manage and harness these elements. Power dynamics, workplace politics, and influence mechanisms form an essential part of everyday organizational experiences. This course dedicates ample time to break down these concepts, encouraging participants to think critically and apply these insights in real-world scenarios. Gender roles, diversity, and inclusion are pressing issues in today's globalized workplace. The present course addresses these themes head-on, promoting a deeper understanding and appreciation of diversity and inclusion issues in the workplace. Finally, self-introspection, self-management, and self-mastery tie everything together, ensuring participants understand organizational dynamics and utilize the lessons learnt from this course for their professional growth and development.
