The ability to innovate is also a key driver of organizational growth. What do entrepreneurial actions mean within an organisation? How can an organisation include more entrepreneurial thinking and innovation from outside to succeed in its own strategic goals?

The module aims to go beyond standard business teaching to uncover the often-hidden dynamics and behaviours behind successful entrepreneurship.
