Spears School’s Andy Urich will be presenting Management Development Programs in Dallas

Monday, September 14, 2015

The Oklahoma State University Spears School of Business Department of Management is presenting two seminars in Dallas this September at ISNetworld, 3232 McKinney Ave. The sessions focus on helping participants and companies receive the knowledge to be and continue to be successful in today’s dynamic business environment.

On Sept. 29, Andy Urich will present “The Power of Influence” from 9 a.m.-4 p.m. During this seminar, participants will learn the skills needed to establish and continue working relationships with both outside clients and individuals inside the organization. At the end of this seminar, participants will leave with persuasive communication skills and the knowledge of how to use these skills effectively to accomplish work and tasks while still maintaining successful relationships.

Urich will present “Critical Thinking and Innovative Decision-Making” from 9 a.m.-4 p.m. Sept. 30. This program will focus on the vital role that mindset and thinking play in developing high-value skills. These skills include the ability to solve problems, make good decisions and create profitable ideas. The goal is to help participants become conscious of their thought processes and give them tools and ideas to improve how they think.

“I’m positive that the Management Development Programs will be a very rewarding experience for everyone involved,” said Ken Eastman, dean of the OSU Spears School of Business. “Dr. Urich brings great experience and expertise to this topic and he will provide participants with ideas they can readily apply to their jobs.”

Urich is an OSU Spears School of Business associate professor of management and chair for the Eastin Center for Talent Development at OSU. He has received many awards over the years for his outstanding work as a lecturer, researcher, and consultant in the areas of influence, negotiation, and ethics.
