TEACHING

Professor Harlos has been involved in curriculum design and delivery across undergraduate, masters, doctoral, and executive levels in North America, Europe and Australasia. Currently, she teaches two advanced elective BBA courses at the University of Winnipeg that she designed: Psychological Health in the Workplace and Motivation, Teams, and Power in Organizations. She also teaches a BBA introductory course (core) in organizational behaviour that covers topics such as organizational culture, change, leadership, decision making, motivation, teams, power, and conflict.  She has taught in Dr. Henry Mintzberg’s acclaimed International Masters for Health Leadership program and co-designed and co-delivered customized seminars in leadership, teamwork, conflict management, and diversity for organizations such as the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada, McGill University’s Faculty of Medicine, the International Executive Development Centre (Slovenia), and the British Columbia Assessment Authority.

Her teaching approach builds a safe and stimulating environment for experiential learning with pedagogical innovations published in management education journals (e.g., Harlos et al., 2003 and Harlos, 2000 in Journal of Management Education; see Publication tab of this website for full citation). Where possible, she draws on student expertise while fostering engagement, critical thinking, and a sense of community in the classroom.
