Our lives are governed by organizations in almost all aspects. From birth to different levels of education and work, we find ourselves in many organizational contexts. Among the reasons for the presence of many organizations in our daily lives are they provide order in the larger society and act as places to help people achieve their goals when they cannot or do not want to achieve them alone. So, it is possible to define an organization as a group of people (and systems) oriented towards a common goal.
Organizations sustain their lives through management, which can be defined as the art and science of helping people achieve their goals together. Managers determine the direction for the organization and how the goals are to be realized. More formally, managers formulate and implement strategies at all levels within an organization. While managing organizations, they need to address the behavioral dynamics within an organization. This course aims at these dynamics, which concern the individuals, practices, processes and structure. The content, readings and activities we engage in will help you better understand the elements of organizational life, and how to effectively contribute to the organizations you join. |
