Content

The student acquires knowledge and insight into the role of communication when supporting an organisation in a phase of change and implementing those changes. Important issues are resistance to change, creating support and change strategies. The student acquires knowledge for the design of communication policy and the financial argumentation connected to it.
 
It is also of great importance to have insight into the way in which culture influences communication. The student therefore acquires knowledge of intercultural communication theories that play a part when changing in an international context. Students apply these theories to international cases.
