Ph.D. in Management |
 |
Overview |
|
|
|
The Ph.D. program in Management at MUM explores how organizations create
sustainable value that fulfills the interests of the organization
through producing positive impacts for society and the environment.
Our investigations of sustainable management encompass three components:
-
Developing holistic consciousness in the manager
- Managing the transformation of organizations toward sustainable practices
- The measurement and communication of sustainability outcomes.
Each of these components is covered in the coursework and they represent
the scope of our programmatic research on consciousness-based
sustainability in management.
The evolution of individual and collective consciousness cultivates the
learning capabilities of systems thinking, collaborative relationships,
and creative visioning to create sustainable value.
This evolving consciousness expresses itself in new management practices
and forms of organization that enable organizations to innovatively
address social and environmental needs. Evolving consciousness also
attends to and reports on a holistic range of performance outcomes,
encompassing economic, social, and environmental results.
In the Ph.D. program at Maharishi University of Management, sustainable
management is studied in the light of the Science and Technology of
Consciousness. This program in Consciousness-Based Management for
Sustainability provides understanding and experience of the total
intelligence of Nature, which automatically manages the infinitely
complex and evolving universe without strain and without mistakes.
Students in this program practice technologies for personal growth
toward better health, clearer thinking, greater creativity, moral
development, and wisdom. |
