Business management and strategy

For technologies to impact on society, businesses need competent management. Through the department's research and educational programmes, we teach engineers how to leverage technology for excellent performance and the common good. What future strategies benefit from technological advances across companies, industries and society? What leadership skills and capabilities are necessary for our sustainable future? What is the future of work?

To address such critical questions about our common future, our research takes a multi-disciplinary perspective on how advanced technologies shape strategy, management and organisation. As a leading technical university, we combine a deep understanding and exploration of digital and cognitive technologies such as, artificial intelligence and robotics, with perspectives on business management and strategy. This research perspective is both technologically informed and based on Nordic values of quality, well-being and sustainability.

Building on core disciplines such as organisational science, strategic management, and managerial innovation, we collaborate with businesses and universities worldwide to develop insights for next-generation business management and strategy. We also develop innovative managerial solutions for the future while directing research to areas of business management and strategy that require urgent, but also patient, attention for the benefit people, organisations and society.

Technology advances are disrupting business management and strategy, so join us in exploring unprecedented technological opportunities for innovation.
