This course seeks to develop analytical (problem-identifying) and decision-making (problem-solving) skills required to manage complex situations in today’s organizations, skills that are valuable in most organizations on both operational and strategic levels.

Central concepts and traditions in organization studies are emphasized on the course, which aims to equip students with skills for applying organizational research to practice. The course emphasizes the importance of understanding organizations from different theoretical perspectives and the implications of these for managing organizations. Throughout the course, theoretical concepts and models are connected to up-to-date organizational cases around managing people, systems, and change.

The course builds on the idea that students are the main drivers of their own learning, and all activities are designed to enable students’ active participation.

The course is given in English.
