Course Description:
This course applies microeconomic theory and econometric analysis to sport, and it explores some public policy issues that have arisen in the design of sports competitions. In addition, it applies the tools of behavioral finance to sports betting markets. This is a unique opportunity to understand why there has been a recent explosion in economists looking both at the market of sports and using sports data to explain or to test theories about the wider business world. The course is divided into four main parts: The Structure of Sports Leagues, Labor Market Issues, College Sports, and the Market for Sports Betting. By the end of the course, students will be able to comment intelligently on the economic issues of sport which regularly appear in the news media, and they will be able to offer insights into the parallels between betting on the ball game, gambling at the ponies, and purchasing stock in a favorite firm on the NYSE.

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.

FINC-GB.3186 Project Finance and Infrastructure Investment (1.5)
Course Description:
Project finance is used to finance billions of dollars of capital-intensive projects annually. This increasingly critical financial technique relies on the cash flows of a specific project, not the cash flows of a corporation or third party guarantor, to service debt and provide investor returns. Not all projects can support project financing. Project finance is a specialized financial tool requiring both proper structuring and risk mitigation. The purpose of the course is to understand what project finance is, why it is used, and how it is used. Students will learn what the necessary elements are that support the use of project finance to include contractual agreements, technology, sponsors, risk identification and mitigation, sources of capital, financial structuring, the use of financial modeling, accounting considerations, and tax considerations.

Course Description:
Contemporary business environments contain challenges that demand an increasing pace, volume, and complexity of organizational changes. Most organizations, whether they are entrepreneurial start-ups or long-established Fortune 500 firms, find that they must change or wither. This course is geared toward deepening students' understanding of the challenges, techniques, and burdens associated with initiating and implementing major change in an organization. The objective is to prepare managers, or their consultants and advisers, to meet the challenges of organizational change successfully. As such, the course is especially useful for students who plan careers in management consulting, general management (whether in line or staff positions), and entrepreneurship or corporate venturing.

This course will help you toward honing some of the essential self-reflective skills you need to give form and substance to such vision. It will also be of value to those who wish to have a broad intellectual understanding of the context of leading and the content of leadership.

Course Description:
This course develops student skills at diagnosing organizations and developing prescriptions to improve their effectiveness. It is appropriate for those interested in organizational performance from a managerial or external perspective, e.g., management consultants, investment bankers, and financial analysts. It examines organizations' attempts to adapt as open systems in a competitive environment. We consider the major factors influencing organization design, e.g., strategy, environment, and technology. Then we analyze the major internal processes affecting organizational performance, e.g., control systems, politics, and conflict. Next, we probe how organizations can improve their ability to adapt in increasingly dynamic environments. The course includes domestic and international examples. The main learning methods are case analyses and a study of the organizations of the central competitors in an in-dustry or industries that the class chooses. Particular emphasis is placed on organizational-level problems facing senior management.

Course Description:
Many companies bestow a management title on key talent and expect appropriate behavior to follow. That is not the most effective way to develop future business leaders. Increasing self-awareness and being open to feedback are important first steps in leading today's business for tomorrow's results. This course focuses primarily on the practical aspects of managing. While based on solid research, it stresses a hands-on approach to improving students' management skills. Each session focuses on (a) developing personal skills: self-awareness, managing stress, solving problems, and creativity; (b) interpersonal skills: coaching, counseling, supportive communication, gaining power and influence, motivating self and others, and managing conflict; and (c) group skills: empowering, delegating, and building effective teams. Class sessions also give students an opportunity to assess, learn, analyze, practice, and "apply" the above skills to their own work situations so that they can turn good ideas into accepted practice. Students learn not just about management skills but also how to apply those skills to get results

Course Description:
Successful marketing and business strategy depends on a thorough understanding of how people make decisions. Although traditional "rational" models of human reasoning make clear predictions about how people should make decisions, these models fail to fully capture how people actually make decisions in the real world. The purpose ofthis course is to inform future managers and consultants of the sometimes counterintuitive but often predictable rules, processes, and heuristics that guide everyday judgment and decision making, as well as how knowledge of these rules can be utilized to improve marketing and business strategy.

Many firms that have experienced dramatic gains in shareholder value over the last few years(e.g., Google, Apple, Motorola) register innovation as a central driver of their progress. One can argue that innovation, and a culture that inspires and supports innovation, is the only sustainable competitive advantage. A frequent manifestation of recent innovation has been breakthrough design. Design represents a powerful alternative to the dominant management approaches of the last few decades and is an important perspective for leadership to embrace.
