MAN6070: The nature of today’s global business environment means that contemporary organizations are faced with a range of challenges: Innovative Thinking for Organization Development Assignment, BCU, Singapore

The nature of today’s global business environment means that contemporary organizations are faced with a range of challenges and opportunities presented by increasing levels of uncertainty, ambiguity, and complexity. In order to be successful organizations need to find ways to be innovative, work with, and indeed proactively exploit these conditions.

Such environments require individuals, teams, and organizations to become more enterprising, resourceful, innovative, and creative, and demand more critical or ‘beyond the box’ thinking. The aim of this module is to develop your awareness, skills, and experience in the practice of entrepreneurship and innovation. We do this by involving you directly in the processes involved in generating ideas and establishing new ventures, and helping you reflect on how this experience relates to theory on the subject.

The chosen assessment method is appropriate to assess all four of the Module learning outcomes. It supports a theory-to-practice approach to learning and is in line with key expectations of employers and professional bodies for the development of effective oral communication skills. The capacity to draw on appropriate techniques to prepare and deliver confident and engaging oral presentations is a key management skill and is particularly relevant as a medium to promote innovative thinking and ideas within organizations.
