Organizational Behavior and Dynamics

Lead your organization to success in an ever-changing work environment.

Change is constant. The world is unpredictable. What worked today may not work tomorrow.

Bryant University’s Organizational Behavior and Dynamics course was requested by our corporate partners to empower employees, managers, and leaders to understand how their behaviors contribute to an ever-changing work environment. By shining a light on why people behave the way they do, you’ll gain insights on how to resolve conflicts and improve performance in your workplace.

“This is an actionable course where employees and leaders will apply new knowledge to work relationships resulting in a positive outcome for themselves and their organization.”

Instructor Alex Cole, Ed.D.
