Kursusindhold
This course addresses the question: What organizational form is best suitable for aligning for sustainable societal impact? We begin at the macro level, by addressing global governance mechanism and international agreements, and critically assess voluntary codes of conduct and sector specific initiatives. We unpack collaborative governance by designing and implementing a cross-sector partnership, which can be directly applied to the Immersive Learning Projects. In addition to organizational form, we zoom in on organizational culture and on strategic, operational, and tactical organizational layers to analyze the role of the leader in organizational sustainable transformation. We will practice facilitating across different mindsets and value systems, which is a typical hurdle in creating successful cross-sector partnerships.
