It offers comprehensive and integrative cases that require the student to make the decisions and plans necessary for successful cross-cultural management at the strategic and interpersonal level. The course will explore many traditionally domestic HR concepts in multinational context. The optional portion of this course offers the student a glimpse of the organizational behavior concepts in the international environment. It will extend the student’s knowledge beyond the basic HR function to the area of social human behavior in international business. Teaching Methods The course incorporates two teaching approaches: Internet lectures/discussions and self motivation/self-learning “owning your own behavior”. You are expected to come to class having read and thought about topics scheduled for the class sessions. Note that your participation will make the class pleasant and intellectually stimulating so please do attend every session. Philosophy and of Performance Objectives the Course – Students who successfully complete this course should be able to: • Articulate the importance of organizational training and development to the effectiveness of organizations as demonstrated by class discussion, book problems, and class or non-class exercises. • Interpret, critically analyze, recommend, and defend with supporting evidence feasible courses of action for actual real life situations. • Describe the major factors affecting training and developing behavior of individuals and groups within organizations. • Recognize the interplay of diversity in an organization’s environments (internal, external, and global business environment). • Effectively demonstrate both written and oral communication skills crucial for success in the real world of business. • Demonstrate computer literacy, critical thinking, and class participation skills. Global Awareness Integration The focus of this course is on a general overview of International HR and OB. Every student will incorporate examples, ideas, thoughts and experiences (self or others) of business in a global basis. The instructor will add to this global awareness from his experiences in dealing with the maquiladora industry along the Mexico and United States of American’s border, public and private organizations in the USA, non-profit organizations in Australia, on-line work with worker’s in Spain and service the industry in Canada. Organizations that the instructor has worked with include Invacare, Seagate, Eaton, Bard, Keytronic, TRW, BBB, Lucky Goldstar, CPM, Siemens, Lucent, Delnosa-Delphi, Rey Mex Bra, Bissell, Nokia, Whirlpool and AMMEX. Performance Measures / Exams The examinations will cover materials contained in the designated chapters and topics discussed in class. We will discuss the exam’s details in class (e.g. reviews). Work turning in late will be penalized by a “Letter Grade”. of Grade Reward System (grading) 33.3% Quizzes/Assignments (Cases, Group, PBL, Discussion Questions and Exercises) 33.3% Exams or Video (Essay Answers or Video 15 min. for UG and 20 for Graduate) 33.3% Paper (10 pages minimum for Undergraduates & 20 pages for Graduates) 100% Total Grades will be assigned using the following scale: 100 – 90: A 89 – 80 : B 79 – 70: C 69 – 60: D Below 60: F Attendance Registering for this class implies that you know the days (Tuesday and Thursday) and time (8:00 am) the class meets and accept the responsibility for attending classes and being on time. Excessive tardiness and/or leaving the class early “is” an absence (I ask for emails). If you miss classes because of school (SOBA) activities, you should bring a schedule of expected dates of absence. The student will drop points if he or she has more than three absences. Attendance. The undergraduate catalog clearly states that class attendance is required: Students are expected to attend all class meetings…Excessive absences may be expected to affect a student’s grade adversely or even result in an “F”. Instructors should make the policies on attendance in each class available in writing to students.” (2005-2007 New Mexico Highlands University Undergraduate Catalog, pages 25,26,). The School of Business faculty has adopted a policy, requiring regular attendance. In this class, attendance and participation count for 20 percent of your grade. Everyone starts with 100 points for attendance and participation. You are allowed 1 unexcused absence. After that each unexcused absence will result in the attendance grade being reduced by 10 points. Excused absences require a note from a doctor or nurse or a university official in cases where travel to athletic or other university events is required. Also, prepared participation will be noted and may serve to positively affect a borderline grade. Expectations I expect you to keep up with your reading assignments, to participate, to be present, and on time for all classes. I also expect appropriate and ethical personal conduct from you. Scholastic dishonesty is subject to disciplinary penalties, including possible failure in the course & dismissal from the university. ADA Compliance If you have a documented disability, which will make it difficult for you to carry out the work as I have outlined and/or if you need special accommodations/assistance due to the any disability, please contact the Office of Academic Support. I will make any appropriate accommodations for you. People generally remember: 10% of what they read 20% of what they hear 30% of what they see 50% of what they both see and hear 70% of what is discussed with others 80% of what they personally experience 90% of what they teach others Instructor reserves the right to change or alter the course material as deemed necessary as the class progresses.
