Description

Managing Agile Organisations seeks to develop the managerial perspectives and competencies required for the emergent knowledge economy. It addresses the new challenges posed by fast-moving service lifecycles, workforce empowerment, the virtual structuring of organisations, globalisation and heightened ambiguity. It examines how these challenges will be met by managers in agile organisations as they negotiate time and space, interactions and discourse, power and culture, diversity and commitment, and innovation and change.

Prerequisite: This course is offered by the MBT Program. All students enrolling in MBT courses must have at least four years relevant professional experience.
