In the field of Management and Organisation, the most essential sectors are management, organisation and Human Resources issues. The transition from intensive production activities to knowledge-intensive business services has emphasized the importance of Human Resources as a competitive factor for companies. This puts the focus on knowledge management, making it a core function.
At the same time, the globalisation of entrepreneurship continues. This means that Finnish-based companies will have a more intensive role in global business. On the other hand, Finnish units will merge with foreign multinational companies. The discipline of Management and Organisation aspires to produce and share new knowledge about these evolving challenges.
