Organizations as Enacted Systems: Course Description
This course, from MIT's Sloan School of Management, explores how organizations are viewed through a series of basic concepts. The fundamental ideas covered are sensemaking, knowing, learning and change. The course views organizations as enacted systems, continually shaped by people. The systems then influence the actions of the same individuals. Professor Wanda Orlikowski and Professor Peter Senge originally taught the course. Students enrolled in the OpenCourseWare version of 'Organizations as Enacted Systems' learn through a combination of living cases, group exercises and theory.
This course is made up of lecture notes, a reading list and assignment guidelines. To learn more about fundamental organizational concepts, visit MIT's free online course page.
