Description
A modern public organisation requires strategic management. However, the public sector often struggles when it comes to thinking strategically. This course expands learners’ understanding of strategic management in public organisations. This includes providing learners with scientific knowledge of important strategic management theories, models, analytical frameworks, and instruments, as well as training them on practically applying these strategy tools to organizational and societal challenges. Throughout this course, we pay special attention to the policy contexts in which strategic management in the public sector is shaped and how this influences strategy in practice.
Content
The course has two main components:
Interactive sessions on strategy, strategy analysis, strategy formulation, strategy implementation and strategy evaluation in public organisations with specific attention to concrete instruments that stimulate strategic thinking.
Information and guidance for group work in which learners are asked to construct a strategic plan for a new organization focused on a societal challenge based on the instruments provided during the interactive sessions. .
