Content“Ours has become, for better or for worse, a society of organizations. We are born in organizations, and are educated in organizations, so that we can later work in organizations. Organizations supply us and exploit us, they nurture us and torment us. But most of us must resign ourselves to spending a great deal of our public and private lives dealing with them. We all need to understand them better.” (Mintzberg)
In this course, students will look into their own organizations within the perspective of understanding how it works and how it can be managed more effectively.
