This module looks closely at the role of management in organisations. It explores how organisations are structured and how they function, with a focus on how people work together in the organisational context. You will explore a range of topics that impact on the role of the manager such as: business ethics; the identification, mitigation and management of organisational risk; organisational sustainability; and creating entities that attend to decisions. You will also develop an understanding of sustainability and the way that organisations interact and impact on society and the communities around them through Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). The module investigates the need for organisational continuity and robustness in an increasingly global context of increased risk, competition, crisis and disasters, as well as the legislative issues that impact on organisations.
