itics aimed at enhancing one’s own or one’s group’s per-
sonal agendas. This course focuses on preparing grad-
uate business students for the challenges and “realities”
they will ultimately face as managers. Given that most
business students will eventually be leading the efforts
of others, it is essential that they understand how to
acquire power and exercise power within ethical
bounds.

Course is designed for those students who see them-
selves in settings where they have to develop new prod-
