Adopting an open systems perspective, organization theory explains the relations among organization environments, strategy, organization design, groups, technology, and culture and effectiveness. Students are expected to reflect on their performance and learning in Intensive 1 as a contribution to their point-of-view portfolio, integrate those learnings into the frameworks explored in this course, and mobilize for class and field assignments in Intensive 2.
