Topic outline

  • Overall description: Using social media platforms has become increasingly common for interaction/communication and collaboration in organizations. The latest societal changes have supported the use of platforms at workplaces, but consequences may have unintended. The course aims to give the readiness to evaluate the use of ESM in product development, organizational changes, and leadership. We will base our active discussions on research literature and practice. The course requires active participation (i.e., contribution to the conversation and engaged listening) because we believe in collective learning through interaction. Each class has a mandatory pre-reading and a short exercise.
