HMUS 543 - Boards and Governance II 1 s.h.

Building upon prior course work this course will delve deeper into the workings and related issues of board structures, make-up, ethical dilemmas, and practices that impact an organization’s daily and long term successes. Students will assess how well boards functioned in actual case studies, the intended vs. actual impact of a board’s actions, and how the board can improve its chances of repeating success or preventing future failures. As in the prerequisite course, teams will study and report on case studies, accompanied by a final paper reflecting on what they have learned in board operations, personalities, and motivations.
Prerequisite(s): HMUS 500 and HMUS 542 .
