Prof. Wintheiser:
 
You posted the following query on one of our listservs:
 
"If you were to teach MBA students (in Portugal specifically) Organizational
Behavior, what would be our syllabus, course outline, etc.? What book(s)
would you use? What emphasis would you place on the different topics (% of
time)? What if any interactive games/experiential role playing would you
use? Would you use cases, and which ones?"
 
 
*********************
 
There are several online resources that may help:  first, our own Web page --
 
                        http://www.hbsp.harvard.edu/
 
At this World Wide Web location, you can browse our entire catalog of
teaching materials -- books, Harvard Business School case studies and
reprints from the Harvard Business Review, to name just a few of its items.
You can also download sample case studies to review for possible adoption.
You can find out the latest OB research that's being written about in the
pages of the Harvard Business Review.  You can get previews of books being
published by HBS Press, and find out the nearest distribution point at which
to purchase them (or acquire them for your classes).  And you can sign up
for listservs like the one you originally used to post this message!
 
Another resource is the Web page for the Harvard Business School itself:
 
http://www.hbs.edu/
 
Go to "faculty units" [under Faculty, on the home page], then click on
Organizational Behavior to learn more about this department and your
colleagues here at HBS.  Individual faculty members also often have their
own home pages, with notes about some of their courses.  Some syllabi are
posted here, as well.
 
Thanks for using our listserv, and please continue to do so!
