Objectifs
The environment of our organizations is becoming more and more complex. The classical and
dominant management systems are being seriously challenged. This course will propose an
in-depth look at the paradigms from which the main existing management models have been
generated, in order to understand their contexts and evolution.
More recently introduced organizational- and management models integrate a certain awareness
of our organizations being living systems. This course will analyze parallels between other living
systems and human organizations in their way of emerging and functioning.
Design thinking will be presented as a tool to build on this knowledge to design ecosystemic
interactions for more sustainable organizations, achieving positive results in terms of a triple
bottomline (3BL): social, environmental, economical.
The course will evaluate practical applications for sustainable organizations which are found in
innovative socioeconomic concepts and principles like Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), Environmental-Social-Governance (ESG) performance, Social Entrepreneurship, Business Ethics and Social Marketing.
Estimation of private study (outside of contact hours): 20 hours
