About this Unit
This online unit makes a broad distinction between organisational, inter- organisational and international contexts. Students will explore what is involved in collaborating effectively within and across such different contexts. There are six study themes throughout this unit, all of which are central to understanding how different individuals perceive and experience the different contexts in which they work. The themes are: managing aims, power, politics and trust, cultural diversity, international management perspectives, the darker side of collaborative arrangements and paradoxes, tensions and dialectics.
