The module explores the theoretical perspectives of contemporary management issues and sustainability in management. It develops students' knowledge and skills in the approaches and methods for addressing the fundamental problems that underlie organisational management of sustainability in a changing world. The skills developed in this module are crucial in undertaking the Contemporary Live Management Project module. In pursuit of this aim, the module will examine the key underlying sustainability issues and global mega-trends driving the need to transform the world into a sustainable one. Students will also understand sustainable business/governance models, their underlying principles and their relationship with organisations, and the role of ethics in individual and organisational decision-making. Finally, students will understand the use of relevant tools, techniques, methods and practices in tackling sustainability issues and apply them in their learning and the Contemporary Live Management Project.
