This lecture focuses on the theory of organizational management, which forms the core of business administration, and covers the process of changes in management organization and the basic concept of the creation and operation of management organization in the modern age where information and communication technology has advanced and spread.
This lecture is offered as Organizational Management I, but by taking it in conjunction with Organizational Management II, you will be able to comprehensively learn about the basics and applications of management organization theory, as well as new research results and frameworks related to recent management organization theory.
Management organization theory has been developed in close relation with business administration theory and management strategy theory.
