When considering problem-finding and problem-solving, policy is a major frame of reference for the solution. But how are policies actually constructed to solve problems? There is no single 'justice' or 'right answer'. There are many stakeholders, each with their own 'justice' and 'right answer'.

Therefore, the aim of this WS is to practise and learn how to discover policy issues, explore their causes, formulate and disseminate policies.
Organizations increasingly rely on technologies to operate, organize, and innovate in this digital/big data era.

It is essential for managers to understand and utilize technologies to successfully manage and solve current organizational and managerial problems. Topics covered in this course include the IT impact on organizations, new forms of organizing such as online communities, social media, and digital platforms, IT-enabled open innovation, and the future of work with cutting-edge digital technologies including AI, algorithms, automation and data analytics.

This course will give lectures on game theory to analyze the strategic interdependence of people and organizations in society, from the beginning to relatively advanced contents. Rather than pursuing mathematical rigor, I would like to give priority to students mainly to understand game theoretical way of thinking. Therefore, advanced mathematical knowledge is not required, but the explanation itself is quite logical.
The content to be dealt mainly with orthodox noncooperative game theory, but includes recent topics on bounded rationality (evolutionary game theory) and experiments in strategic interaction, and part of cooperative game theory. The participants of this lecture should not be satisfied with superficially describing complex social phenomena, but through active analysis using the framework of such game theory, I want you to acquire a clear understanding of the mechanism of social phenomena and flexible thinking that excludes fixed ideas on social problems.

In this class, we will learn the ideas and methods that "organizations can build relationships with society (public) and mutually improve value" from the history of PR, marketing, management and put them into practice in your group work. The image is going back and forth between “classroom lecture” and “practice”.
Theories and methods are just "information". To really understand, you should to put into practice what you learn. That's a group-work. To solve your problems, you can use the theory and then collaborate with your team members. At the final presentation, you can receive genuine reviews from the editor-in-chief and producer-class human resources. And also we invite many guest speakers like business operators, media, and journalists.
