GSBGEN 646: Behavioral Decision Making

This seminar examines research on the psychology of judgment and choice. Although the normative issue of how decisions should be made is relevant, the descriptive issue of how decisions are made is the main focus of the course. Topics of discussion include choice, judgment heuristics and biases, decision framing, prospect theory, mental accounting, context effects, task effects, regret, and other topics. The goal of the seminar is twofold: to foster a critical appreciation of existing knowledge in behavioral decision theory, to develop the students' skills in identifying and testing interesting research ideas, and to explore research opportunities for adding to that knowledge.

GSBGEN 112Q: Leading Out Loud: an Exploration of Leadership Communication through an LGBT Lens

Students of all sexual orientations are invited to apply for this unique new seminar looking at the distinct challenge LGBT leaders have faced in communicating effectively. Through the years, many individuals have led the struggle for gay rights and inclusion through a variety of different communication strategies and tactics; some were successful while others were not. This seminar course will explore some of the key leaders in the LGBT community and how they chose to communicate. Together we will search through a variety of film clips, transcripts, news reports, and other historical elements to see how the message, media, and moments work together. A number of guest speakers will also share their perspective on what it means to "Lead Out Loud." Heterosexual identified students as well as LGBT students are encouraged to apply; in fact, we seek to have a true diversity of opinions in the room as we explore this topic. All students will benefit from this exploration of how to communicate about controversial, sensitive, and personal subjects with greater strength and purpose.

GSBGEN 239: MSx: Executive Communication Strategies

Communication is crucial to the success of all leaders, but as you climb within an organization the ability to write and speak effectively is magnified. This course will explore how individuals can develop and execute effective communication strategies for a variety of business settings. nnnThis course introduces the essentials of communication strategy and persuasion at an executive level. We will study: audience analysis, communicator credibility, message construction and delivery. Deliverables will include written documents and oral presentations and you will present both individually and in a team. You will receive continuous feedback to improve your communication effectiveness. Through this highly interactive course, you will see why ideas, data and advocacy are combined for a professional, persuasive presentation. nnnThis practical course helps students at all levels of communication mastery develop confidence in their speaking and writing through weekly presentations and assignments, lectures and discussions, guest speakers, simulated activities, and filmed feedback. This section is specifically designed with the needs of a senior leader in mind and is only open to Sloan Students. Students who elect to take this course in the fall should not also take strategic communication in the winter or spring; the courses will have sufficient overlap in concepts and assignments.

GSBGEN 324: Leading with Mindfulness and Compassion

The course explores the role of mindfulness and compassion in the workplace, and the contribution of these qualities to leadership. Topics addressed will include: How can mindfulness enhance clarity in purpose and productivity? What is the connection between mindfulness and compassion? Is compassion in the business world a strength or a weakness? Are compassion and profit motives fundamentally incompatible, or can they support each other? What does compassionate leadership look like? Can mindfulness and compassion be trained at the individual level, and built into company policy? How does self-compassion support effective leadership and recovery from setbacks? Guests from the corporate or non-profit sectors will discuss the challenges of integrating mindfulness and compassion into business strategy and the work environment. Guests from the scientific field will discuss research on mindfulness and compassion as they relate to real-world challenges. Participants in the course will engage with exercises from evidence-based programs targeting the development of mindfulness and the various facets of compassion.

GSBGEN 337: Business Collaboration to Promote a Sustainable Food System

This goal of this class is to redesign our food system through project-based, experiential education and entrepreneurship. Projects will focus on food justice, sustainable food and farming technology and disruptive models of production and distribution. The class will scale change by providing creative spaces and resources for students, faculty, and community partners to learn and apply design thinking to real-world opportunities in the food system.

GSBGEN 359: Leading Your Life

This course takes conventional managerial perspectives on the "strategic leadership" of organizations and applies them to the design and management of your life. Fundamental notions of "purpose" and "vision" are translated to the personal level in the form of "dreams" and "aspirations." Basic elements of strategy such as "scope" and "competitive advantage" are applied to help you evaluate fundamental choices about how you lead your life. Constructs such as "priorities," "commitments" and "resource allocation" all have analogues in individual life - as does the core objective of performance and success. The class begins with a hard-nosed and broad-based self-assessment of the quality of your life along a variety of dimensions including relationships, career, money, spirituality and health. Based on this assessment you will develop a strategy and a set of concrete goals for enhancing the quality of your life in targeted domains. The course consists of five intensive sessions designed to help you develop the skills and knowledge- but more importantly the insight and capacity - to be more strategic (in best sense of the term) and effective in how you lead your personal and professional life - meaning actively guiding, stewarding, and driving your results to create a life that is truly exceptional. Substantively, the course draws on a variety of different traditions including existential, humanistic, and positive psychology; personal growth, adult development, and the human potential movement; as well as the practice of life and executive coaching. Central themes and learning objectives include: * The development of self-awareness, self-acceptance, and self-control * An understanding of the power of choice and "authoring" one's life * The essential role of dreams and aspirations * The art and discipline of knowing and speaking your truth * The challenges and self-limiting impact of negative thoughts and self-theories * Developing a stance towards oneself and others that is rooted in grace and wisdom NB: While we expect the class to be helpful and of interest to a wide range of students, it involves a substantial commitment of time and emotional and intellectual energy. It is not for the faint of heart or those who are ambivalent about introspection, feedback, or constructive confrontation.

GSBGEN 512: Funding Social Impact: Methods and Measurement

The past decade has seen an increasing interest in impact investments, which seek to generate financial returns at the same time as they have social (or environmental) impact. But how does an investor actually achieve impact? We explore this question through a framework that requires that the investee enterprise itself has net positive impact and that the investor's financial or other contribution increases that impact. We consider the challenges of measuring an enterprise's impact, and then turn to assessing the value added by investors, fund managers, and other intermediaries. The course will be taught mainly through case studies that consider investments in different asset classes ranging from those that expect below-market returns to ones that expect risk-adjusted market returns or better. We will look at investments at various stages, from R&D to start-ups to mature enterprises and entire sectors, considering the role of subsidies (for better or worse) and how an enterprise's social mission can be protected upon exit, and also will examine social impact bonds. The course is taught by Paul Brest, http://www.law.stanford.edu/profile/paul-brest. With its focus on assessing impact, it has a different mission than Matt Bannick's winter quarter course, New Business Models in the Developing World, which examines enterprises serving the base of the pyramid, and David Chen's spring quarter course, Impact Investing: Strategies and Tools, which broadly examines the domain of impact investments with emphasis on those yielding market returns. Students will find only slight overlap among the three courses.
