Position description

 

The Ron Joyce Centre for Business Studies/Commerce Department at Mount Allison University invites applications for a part-time stipendiary appointment in Sackville to teach a course entitled COMM 4331A-Management of Organizational Change for the winter term. This course is a study of organizational change from two perspectives: planned change and evolutionary change. In discussing planned change, the focus is on the planning and implementation process for introducing innovation, restructuring, continual learning, and other types of organizational change. Topics include overcoming resistance to change and embedding the desired change. In discussing evolutionary change, the focus is on the patterns of change in the cultures, structures, systems and processes in different types of organizations over extended periods of time in response to management initiatives, competitive pressures and changes in other organizational variables. 

The course is scheduled with one section on Mondays at 1:30 p.m. for 3 hours in the Winter academic term 2027. The class size is approximately 30 students per section. Although the course is scheduled in person on the Sackville campus, the possibility of delivering the course in a hybrid format (in-person and online) or synchronously online (fully online on the days/times) may be considered.
