The centrality of power, hierarchy, and communication in organizational functioning will be considered. You will explore the bidirectional nature of conflict and dysfunction, as well as preventive and intervention strategies for addressing these challenges. You will also attend to the application of relational/systemic ethics within organizations. Emphasis will also be placed on culturally competent methods for addressing organization conflict and dysfunction.
