Management of Organisational Development
The pace of change is faster than ever before. Between the rapid changes in digitalisation, automatisation, artificial intelligence and robotics and their constant presence in our lives, it is easy to forget that innovation is driven by humans, for humans. Focusing on the improvement of human-centred change at both the individual and organisational levels will continue to be the main asset of organisations all over the world. Enabling interaction is important to achieve new levels of activity or innovation in organisational development and various forms of cooperation.
Transitions are complex, systemic changes, taking place in, for instance, a certain industry or societal function. They are understood as multi-level changes from one socio-technical system to another, involving co-evolution of technological and societal factors.
The programme aims to provide students with a systemic vision about development in organisations and the skills and capabilities for leadership, critical thinking and managing change. The programme takes an interdisciplinary approach to the management of organisational development, teaching participants to analyse, understand and lead different company processes and to apply technological, economic, and human knowledge to resolve real-life industrial, business, and organisational problems.
In this programme, you will gain expertise in industrial engineering and management and an in-depth understanding of change, leadership, development, well-being, and innovation. Close collaboration with industrial companies, other organisations and networks will ensure the practical worldwide application of new knowledge and theories.
