This course explores the many possible answers to the question: why do people behave the way they do? We will take a three-tiered approach to inquiry by looking at individual behaviour, group and team behaviour, and then transition to organisational behaviour. This course will introduce you to a range of theoretical perspectives and concepts including individual differences, motivation, excelling in teams, organisational culture, the future of work and discuss what all this means to you as you progress through your career.

This course will equip you with the foundational knowledge necessary to understand human behaviour in organisational settings, take action to mitigate behavioural issues and be successful in managing people. The learning journey you undertake will provide you with autonomy to make choices about how you demonstrate your learning, have the opportunity to be a part of a learning community and have fun!
