Programme Structure
The two core areas of the Organisation are:
Organisational Behaviour
- Key issues in the area of Organisational Behaviour centre around the effective management of every organisation’s greatest asset – its people. Focal points include the motivation and development of employees, the realisation and value of synergies within and between teams, as well as how organisations can maximise the potential of employees for creativity and innovation.
- The activities of the Value-Based Organising (VBO) group have positioned ERIM among the academic world leaders in sustainability. The group’s research priorities include how economic organisations interact with institutional, societal and natural environments. In turn, research in these areas explores factors such as the conditions under which organisations can engage in shared value creation, and how, rather than contributing to society’s problems, organisations can be part of the solution.
