When: Block week 15.01.2024 - 20.01.2024, Kick-off meeting 18.10.2023 (times and rooms still to be announced).

Learning goals

Profound insight into the complexity of judging and decision-making in positions of responsibility and in communication. The emphasis here is not on technical and methodical skills but on the effective management of employees, customers and clients as well as the associated communication and necessary social skills, especially cooperative behaviours.

On completion of the module “The importance of the way we think in judging and decision-making in positions of responsibility and in communication” participants will have the basic tools for management in positions of responsibility which is based on a better understanding of one’s own thinking and that of others and thus on improving the ability to exercise self-criticism. The latter benefits social competence and appropriate communication even in challenging situations.

There will be a seminar-based instruction in which the ideas and findings of Daniel Kahneman, 2002 Nobel Prize Winner for Economics, will be analysed and discussed based on his book “Thinking, Fast and Slow”. Reading this book prior to the beginning of the block week is therefore a basic requirement for effective participation, which will be demonstrated with a student research project and lecture (topic to be announced at the beginning of the semester in the kick-off event).
