MGT385 Strategy Practice

Pre-requisites: MGT231

Aims/Description: This advanced strategy module will develop students' understanding of strategy practice and the processes through which strategies are accomplished within organisations. Building on students' understanding of the key concepts, frameworks and theories of strategic management, the module focuses on 'strategy work'; developing a deeper understanding of the nature of strategy work in organisations and strategy work and how strategy practitioners carry out this work. By applying key concepts and theories to everyday practical problems and case studies of strategy work in organisations, students will be able to critically examine how strategy practitioners deal with complex real-world problems in organisations and the practices that influence strategy outcomes. In this way, this module will enhance students' understanding of how strategy works in practice. The module will also enable students to recommend appropriate strategies and solutions for strategy practitioners in organisations.
