Lernergebnisse

The learning goals of this unit are as follows:

1) Knowledge and understanding

Both disciplines Strategic Management and Entrepreneurship are young disciplines. The former is largely theory driven, while the latter is phenomenon driven and experiential. In this module, we make the attempt to contrast them, but we also try to show how they are complimentary. The first learning goal is to impart a general understanding of Strategic Management and Entrepreneurship and to gain ‘up to date’ knowledge on selected challenges within both disciplines.

2) Intellectual skills

Being able to think critically and be creative: manage the creative processes in self and others; organise thoughts, analyse, synthesise and critically appraise. This includes the capability to identify assumptions, evaluate statements in terms of evidence, detect false logic or reasoning, identify implicit values, define terms adequately and generalise appropriately.

3) Professional practical skills

Effective performance within team environments and the ability to recognise and utilise individuals' contributions in group processes and to negotiate and persuade or influence others; team selection, delegation, development and management.

4) Transferable (key) skills

Effective two-way communication: listening, effective oral and written communication of complex ideas and arguments, using a range of media, including the preparation of business reports

High personal effectiveness: critical self-awareness, self-reflection and self-management; time management; sensitivity to diversity in people and different situations and the ability to continue to learn through reflection on practice and experience
