COURSE CONTRIBUTION TO PROGRAM

The aim of this subject is to help students on the verge of joining the job market to better understand what their organisations will expect of them in terms of their contributions and their integration when taking their first steps in the business world.

Course Learning Objectives

Organisations establish norms to regulate employee actions and interactions and to promote certain work flows, creating incentive systems to encourage the behaviours they feel contribute to achieve the desired results. Learning about and understanding what attitudes and behaviours motivate and demotivate organisations is essential for any professional career. Identifying the management practices applied in a wide diversity of organisations to establish common guidelines regarding what should be done and, consequently, who should or shouldn¿t do it, is the fundamental learning objective of this subject.

CONTENT
