Course Description:
During this introductory course on organization theory, we unpack theoretical tools that help understand how people structure and manage organizations and what are core organizational processes. We thereby cover various foundational theories, models, and concepts of organization theory. They relate to, for example, decision-making, innovation, and communication. To bring organization theories to life, we look at various examples, such as factories in 19th-century industrial England and innovative companies of the 21st century. Although our focus is on general theories that are useful across different organizational and national contexts, we explicitly discuss international business-related theories. Finally, and importantly, we continue developing academic and research skills that students increasingly need throughout their studies.
