What is management? And why do we see new trends substituting old ones all the time in this field? How should a manager relate to these trends? Are the new models promoted by consultants effective? And if not, can they be useful anyway? How? And useful for whom?

These are some of the questions that we will try to answer during the course. We will read a lot of interesting research papers, but also refer to practice and listen to a number of experts within specific management trends. 

This course requires autonomous work and reflection. You will also need to start working with the course material and assignments directly from the beginning. The course design is aimed at creating the possibility for interaction and for working on the course material during classes. But you will also need to read a number of articles before each class in order to participate and learn.
