Subject coordinator: John Carr
In this subject students analyse differing perspectives on communication in organisations and the ways in which group processes affect organisational life. The subject focusses on the communicational features of leadership and aims to provide students with the ability to evaluate and critically discuss their own and others' leadership and communication styles. It enables students to make connections between theories and practice so they can develop successful team-building and team-management strategies. Conflict management, change management, culture creation, problem solving and decision making are some of the workplace challenges explored in this subject. Approaches to leadership, communication climate and motivation of staff are analysed in the context of ever-changing organisational environments, including technology and globalisation.
