This course will focus on the theories and empirical knowledge of organizational behavior, development and the change exemplified by theories of bureaucracy, conflict, human relations, and decision-making. Through these lenses, students further examine theories on the roles, functions, and responsibilities of social services managers, including supervisors, community organizers and project planners working in urban and rural social work agencies. Particular attention is focused toward working with a culturally diverse workforce and community groups experiencing severe social problems, so that education, health, human and social services can be provided justly, efficiently, and effectively. Topics to be covered include evidence-based social work practices, management and organizational practice, finance, diversity issues in resource development, and managing change and designing services in complex settings.
