People in Organisations

Why do people in organisations feel and act in the way they do? What are the factors which influence the behaviour of people in organisations and hence what factors affect the operation of the organisation as a whole? How can organisations be designed and managed in order to influence people's behaviour and therefore to ensure more successful organisations?

People in organisations is concerned with explaining organisations, both the general and the particular. For instance it is interested in developing general theories of decision-making or leadership or communications which might apply broadly to all organisations.

Beyond this it is concerned with particularly the exploration of organisations by developing models which account for differences between organisations and which therefore can provide a more detailed framework for helping managers, and others, to influence organisational outcomes.

In this course you will come across a wide range of theories and ideas which provide general and particular accounts of organisations.

Helped me start my passion!

Had seen the course on a few social media platforms and was originally skeptical about whether it was genuine but I expressed interest regardless. I had someone named Samuel ring me and talked to me throughout the entire course, the application process and overall helped me feel reassured about signing up which has helped me significantly. He was genuinely amazing and was also someone I could have a laugh with over the phone as the application proceeded! I have now signed up for the Paramedical Science Course which is something I've wanted to do for years now and I have Samuel and the LD Team to thank for that. Thank you both Learn Direct and Samuel!
