Overview
The course is designed as an introduction to the subject of Organisational Behaviour, which helps people in organisations to have a better understanding of factors that influence behaviour. It aims to improve self-understanding and also understanding of the behaviour of other people. The module draws on insights and research from Organisational Behaviour (specifically from the Psychological and Sociological parts of Organisational Behaviour) and more widely from the social sciences to explore a number of topics, enabling us to be more reliable and rigorous than using only ?common sense? understandings of behaviour. The module highlights some areas of difference and diversity that we are likely to encounter in many contemporary organisations.
Assessment: Coursework (50%) ; Exam (50%).
