Verwendbarkeit des Moduls: For the modules „Technologie- und Innovationsmanagement“, „IT-Strategie und –management“ und „Daten- und Wissensmanagement“. In modules of the management oriented master-programs at the FHDW. Qualifikationsziele des Moduls: Students are familiar with the differents dimensions of the definition of complexity . They are able to use indicators to describe complexity at a quantifiable level. They understand economical, ecological and social conditions of companies and are able to evaluate how drivers of complexity evolve in typical business surroundings by taking into account intercultural aspects as well. They know concepts and methods to cope with complexity and are able to use these methods to manage complexity in specific situations. Lehr- und Lernmethoden des Moduls: Presentations are used to summarize the discussed topics. Zusammenfassungen der diskutierten Inhalte. Preferably by using case studies that are discussed in teams, the students will research about the impacts of complexity and learn about adaequate solutions to cope with the negative competences of complexity. They will begin with the analysis of complexity drivers for selected companies or business models from different industries. At the end of the module they have to develop solutions to manage the corresponding dimensions of complexity. Ideally students are able to introduce real world examples by their own, e.g. from own business experience. . Besonderes: Where applicable guest speakers will present real world examples of complexity from different business perspectives, use of e_learning. Inhalte des Moduls: Students will learn to understand, analyze and evaluate , the impacts of complexity-drivers.in different scopes. . Based on this understanding methods and principles of complexity management will be introduced, discussed and applied on Seite 21 von 45 Studiengang: IT-Management and Information Systems (M.
