FINC-GB.3129Behavioral and Experimental Finance (1.5)

Course Description:

Finance theory has long relied on a descriptively sparse model of behavior based on the premise that investors and managers are rational Another critical assumption is that misjudgments by investors and managers are penalized swiftly in competitive markets In recent years both assumptions have been questioned as the standard model fails to account for various aspects of actual markets Behavioral finance which allows that investors and managers are not always rational and may make systematic errors of judgment that affect market prices has emerged as a credible alternative to the standard model This course provides an exposition of the insights and implications of behavioral finance theory showing how it can explain otherwise puzzling features of asset prices and corporate finance Notwithstanding the inroads of the new theory the standard model retains strong support amongst many academics practitioners who make criticisms of behavioral finance that deserve serious consideration An important challenge that we will address in this course is identifying the respective domains of each perspective and whether there are tradable opportunities

INTA-GB.3130Leadership Fellows (1.5)

Course Description:

Becoming a better leader is not a passive process. Adults learn far more through experience -- through acting and reflecting -- than they learn from the advice of others. As such, the Leadership Fellows curriculum is heavily focused on practice. Fellows will practice working through difficult workplace scenarios with professional role players, be given the opportunity to reflect on their behavior, and provide / receive feedback from their cohort members. Further, they will be afforded the opportunity to test their learning by repeating the experience. The purpose of this practice is to position students as leaders within their organizations after Stern. By practicing and experiencing the emotions and rushing thoughts that arise under pressure, students will rise to the occasion, carry themselves with greater confidence and purpose, and be seen as people who are seasoned beyond their years.

Course Description:

In this course, you will use improvisation techniques to enhance your ability to think on your feet, connect with others, build trusting relationships, and develop greater confidence to make good things happen. Through improvisation, you will learn how to listen openly, let judgments of yourself and others fall away, and adapt to change. After all, effective leadership communication is that which compels change in what we do as individuals, as a team, and as a company. It is about developing a strategy and communicating it so compellingly that it brings new ideas to life. Improvisation is unique in its ability to heighten awareness of self and others, helping you take and support responsible risks, owning your authority and sharing it well when it makes sense. Staying empathic, agile, and present amidst ambiguity and adversity is essential to cultivating the resilience and integrity needed to become a leader in an increasingly transparent society. That is what this course is designed to help you do!

MCOM-GB.3112Difficult Conversations (1.5)

Course Description:

Successful business relationships require the ability to manage difficult conversations. When managing clients, managing direct reports, or managing up, you will encounter difficult conversations. This course will enable you to effectively lead your most challenging and consequential conversations at work to desired outcomes. You will gain an understanding of the variety of difficult conversations, the neuroscience of what makes a conversation difficult, and the business case for why avoiding these conversations is too costly for employees' careers and for their organizations' effectiveness. Through readings, group practice with feedback, analysis of past challenging conversations, and class discussions, you will learn how to use the core communication skills to manage difficult conversations well, and how to identify and manage interests and motivations. You will practice difficult conversations, reflect on these interactions, and action plan for future conversations. As a result of this course, you will be able to identify the personalized mindset and behavior shifts you need to master "crucial conversations" and perform effectively during the most critical moments in your career.

MCOM-GB.3113Reparative Conversations (1.5)

Course Description:

Developing and repairing trust are critical parts of all successful business relationships with clients, direct reports, bosses, and others. Research shows that teams with a high level of trust perform better, recover from setbacks more readily, and even have superior health outcomes. This course will enable you to build trust, facilitate repair when distrust has weakened a relationship, and begin to cultivate environments of trust at work and beyond. Through readings, videos, in-class discussions, analysis of past relationships, and the planning and practice of real-life reparative conversations, you will learn to: 1) Identify the elements of a relationship that build or harm trust, and the associated behaviors used to build strong teams; 2) Apply the knowledge, skills, mindsets, and frameworks to lead reparative conversations with individuals and groups; and 3) Increase your ability to assess trust levels and make informed decisions about the best way to move forward. Regardless of your starting point, Reparative Conversations will empower you to better manage the cycle of building, maintaining, and repairing trust, as well as creating more resilient relationships.

MGMT-GB.2164Advanced Topics in Negotiation: Corporate Deals, Decisions, and Diplomacy (1.5)

Course Description:

How do you negotiate with many parties? With Godzilla? With other organizations? High stakes? Multiple issues? How do you build a consensus everyone's committed to? How do you act as an agent with constituents and mandates? Deal with talks in the public eye? In short, how do you negotiate corporate life, where things are more challenging than simple one-on-one transactions? In this hands-on, practical continuation of Collaboration, Conflict & Negotiation (CCN), students do a series of increasingly difficult negotiation simulations that help them gain new tools and principles for dealing with the harder talks that happen in corporate life. Students learn to handle multi-party talks, ready for talks with a host of issues using a 'playcard' that gives them 'glance and go' guidance, and deal with highly intimidating counterparts, in part by learning to 'war game.' They also learn to resolve conflicts well even when they have too much responsibility and not enough authority, handle the complex diplomatic challenges of talks between groups and firms, and more. In a capstone simulation, students handle a complex, high-stakes, high-stress, deal on video and then, like athletes, review the tape to discover hidden weaknesses and strengths. CCN is the only pre-requisite. The course complements other Advanced Topics in Negotiation courses and Negotiating Complex Transactions with Executives & Lawyers, which can be taken concurrently or in any order.

The purpose of this course is to expose you to the dynamics of industries driven by technological innovation and to train you to think strategically about technological innovation. In this course we will tackle such questions as: How and why are dominant standards chosen in winner-take-all industries. How do firms choose among multiple attractive innovation projects? How do firms decide whether to go it alone or collaborate and how do firms develop an effective collaboration strategy? How do firms make the difficult choice between protecting their technologies with patents or copyrights versus rapidly disseminating them to build installed base and complementary goods? The course will be lecture, case, and discussion based. Like the industries we will study, the course will be fast-paced challenging and exciting.
