Problem-based learning
Much of the course is taught using the w:Problem-based learning ( w:fi:Ongelmalähtöinen oppiminen ) pedagogical approach/method.
Developing professional is aware of the patterns and dynamics of w:organizational behaviour.
Communication, culture & complexity
w:Marshall McLuhan - communication theorist who coined the saying "World has become a village." in 1960.
In sociology, w:social stratification is a concept involving the "classification of people into groups based on shared socio-economic conditions ... a relational set of inequalities with economic, social, political and ideological dimensions."
w:Social mobility is the movement of individuals or groups in social position over time.
Organizational analysis
- w:SWOT analysis ( Strenghts, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats ) S and W are internal and O and T are external
- w:PEST analysis ( Political, Economic, Social, and Technological analysis ) known as PESTEL ( PEST + Environmental + Legal )in course slides
Psychometrics
Follwing psychometric personality tests are taken on course:
Communication
w:Proxemics is a subcategory of the study of w:nonverbal communication along with
- haptics (touch)
- kinesics (body movement)
- vocalics (w:paralanguage) and
- chronemics (structure of time)
Four verbal communication complexities:
- Direct - Indirect
- Succinct (laconic) - Elaborate
- Person centered - Contextual
- Instrumental – Affective
- (Gudykunst & Ting-Toomey 1998 )
w:Intrapersonal communication is language use or thought internal to the communicator and w:Interpersonal communication is defined in a number of ways by professionals.

w:Media richness theory, sometimes referred to as information richness theory, is a framework to describe a communications medium by its ability to reproduce the information sent over it. ( Wikipedia )
Learning styles
We did the learning styles survey developed by w:David A. Kolb who also contributed much to the theory of w:Experiential learning.
Forms of intelligence
- ) w:Intelligence quotient or w:IQ is a score derived from one of several standardized tests designed to assess intelligence. ( Wikipedia )

- the discourse concerning cultural interactivity, sometimes referred to as cross-culturalism (See also w:multiculturalism, w:cosmopolitanism, w:transculturation, w:cultural diversity) ( Wikipedia )

- w:Path–goal theory
Motivation
- w:Maslow's hierarchy of needs
