be put on management theories that provide insights into business
organisation and strategy in the international knowledge and
network economy.
Aim of the course
The aim of this course is to analyse and highlight the managerial
implications in transforming an input to an organizational output.
Or, in other words, to provide the participants with an elaborated
and contemporary understanding of how work is being organized and
managed.
As such, the course explores perspectives from both organization
theory and organization behaviour to understand internal
organizational structures and processes and their managerial
implications. The students will work with and gain analytical
insights and understanding of concepts such as:
- knowledge creation
- knowledge sharing
- organizational behaviour
- organizational change
- innovation and digitalization
