Teaching Methodologies
the teaching methodology aims at developing students’ autonomy, critical thought and decision making
students will have two challenges: a competitive management game, in which teams will compete in a market setting, making all corporate decisions, and the development of the HR system of a company.
class attendance is not mandatory, but there will be weekly deliverables that teams must comply with for assessment purposes
Learning Results
The aim of the course is to get students to understand management issues in an integrated and holistic manner, highlighting the systemic nature of their decisions. Therefore, it is intended to develop the students’ analytical skills and thinking by confronting them with management situations close to reality in which, facing a dynamic and ambiguous context, they have to identify problems, use knowledge and make decisions to achieve results and learning. Students should became capable of making management decisions, from global strategic formulation to the management of daily operations in all organizational departments.
