things we'll talk about
- how do individuals perceive their organization?
- how do individuals perceive their roles in their organization?
- do different individuals perceive the same organization differently?
- how does this influence organizational culture? does it become multi-dimensional?
- how could individuals' identification with their organization influence their decisions to make ethical choices within that organization?
If the session will include an in-class exercise, it will be noted here.
