About the course
Aim
On completion of the course the student should be able to
- explain the interplay between leadership and culture in organizations from different theoretical perspectives
- identify and critically analyze key challenges of leadership in organizational practices in different parts and regions of the world
- critically analyze trends of leadership and culture development found in different organizational contexts across cultures
- apply theoretical knowledge of leadership and culture in case analysis
Content
The course focuses on the concept of culture on both national, regional, and organizational levels, as well as on theories and practice of leadership. It introduces both classic and contemporary theoretical perspectives to facilitate critical analyses of the role of culture and leadership as driving forces in organizations and societies. The course also facilitates exploration of trends and challenges that leaders face when leading teams within and across different cultural environments. It provides inspiration from practical cases and raises students’ awareness of what it takes to be a leader in a globalized world and benefit from cultural diversity. By equipping students with theoretical and practical tools of cross-cultural leadership, the course helps students develop a personal roadmap towards a future professional global business management career.
