Analysing and Communicating Value

 

After this course, students should have a good starting point for working on their Master’s Thesis rather independently - in terms of (1) understanding of different empirical data gathering methods, (2) conceptual thinking and (3) empirical research work and its documentation as well as (4) the structure, content and narrative of a thesis. Different managerial concepts, in the end, are tools for both researchers and managers alike to develop their thinking and understanding on complex issues. Students can solve managerial problems in different organizations with the help of the existing literature and are able to reflect the reality using the existing literature and concepts. The student understands how the active work in the field, in the spirit of interventionist research, can be a way to (1) get access to the organization, (2) become a team member, hence (3) providing access to more interesting research data. Naturally, each student will gain expertise in the content area of the paper.
