The course introduces explanations of individual and group behaviour in the organisational setting and examines organisational processes. Drawing on the organisational setting, it seeks to build an understanding of how concepts may be organised into models and theories and uses a case study approach to show how such models may be applied to managerial practice, thus reinforcing work in the integrating core of the degree. Specific areas of study may include, at an introductory level, perception, motivation and stress; team effectiveness, decision-making, power and conflict, and leadership; and organisational structure, design, culture and change.
