SUMMARY:From organizational behavior theory to workplace solutions: An aut
 hentic learning project that builds workforce readiness
LOCATION:313 Templeton
DESCRIPTION:Poster Presentation\n\nPresenters: Cynthia Halliday\, Associat
 e Professor of Management\, Marketing\, Management\, and Supply Chain\n\n
 This poster presentation showcases an authentic learning project implemen
 ted in a graduate management course where student teams analyze real orga
 nizations and diagnose workplace challenges through the application of or
 ganizational behavior concepts. Students examine issues including ineffec
 tive communication\, low employee morale\, employee turnover\, poor colla
 boration\, and workplace stress\, then develop evidence-based recommendat
 ions supported by research. They present their findings in a professional
  executive summary report and a management style presentation.\n\nThe pro
 ject addresses a persistent challenge in management education by helping 
 students move beyond memorizing theories and toward applying concepts in 
 realistic organizational settings. While many students can explain organi
 zational behavior principles\, they often struggle to diagnose complex wo
 rkplace problems and propose actionable solutions. This assignment bridge
 s that gap through research\, critical analysis\, professional communicat
 ion\, teamwork\, and problem-solving activities that mirror consulting an
 d managerial practice. It also aligns with the UTEP Edge framework by str
 engthening communication\, confidence\, critical thinking.\n\nhttp://next
