From this perspective, in particular, it aims: -to develop competencies for the design of an effective organizational structure, according to strategy, objectives and environmental context; -to facilitate the understanding of the criteria and the relevant internal and external fundamentals of organizational design; -to deepen the organizational macro and micro dimensions through the analysis of structures and models, behavioral processes and organizational culture; -to stimulate analytical and problem-solving skills applied to the identification, analysis and resolution of organizational problems through the use of business cases. Teacher's Profile courseProgram The course assumes the organization as the object of study and explores the fundamentals of design and analysis of both macro and micro-organizational structure, with the aim of giving tools to apply the acquired knowledge to sports events and organizations. The course initially provides an overview of the dimensions of organizational design and the theoretical fundamentals of the various organizational design options The main classical and modern organizational theories are resented and the determinants and criteria for defining organizational structure are analyzed. Further, the course focuses on the different organizational models that can be implemented, emphasizing the advantages and disadvantages of the different options. Additional aspects are then analyzed, such as the management of innovation and organizational change, the impact of technology on organization, systems and processes, culture and organizational relationships. Finally, the course introduces the topics of the organization of work and the micro-structural design. examMode The student will be evaluated on the basis of the individual scores achieved on: •Development ad discussion of a project work. The aim of the teamwork activity is to test the students’ ability to apply the knowledge acquired in the course to a specific business case. The project work contributes for 50% of the final grade, divided in 25% at the mid-term evaluation and 25% for the final project. Project Work instructions will be displayed by the instructor at the beginning of the course. •The project work score is valid only within the duration of the academic year, but it can be used just once and only if the assessment results as sufficient (grade >=18); if a student fails (grade >18) or rejects the grade, he/she loses the evaluation achieved with the project work; however, in order to keep it for the next dates the student can leave the exam session within the first 15 minutes. •Written test: for students who have completed the project work it consists of a business case discussion (up to 10 points) and 4 true/false questions to justify (up to 5 point each); Project work instructions will be clarified by the instructor at the beginning of the course. For those students who will not complete the project work or will not reach a sufficient evaluation, an individual project work is requested. The project work will developed according to guidelines provided by the instructor and will be developed with the same standards of group project works. •Aim of the written test is allow students to demonstrate that they have acquired the fundamental theoretical knowledge related to the course and can apply them, demonstrating autonomy and critical thinking. •An excellent level of analysis of the business case and the correct answer to all the open questions will result in a score of 30/30 cum laude. The duration of the final exam is 60 minutes. books - Daft R.L., Organizzazione Aziendale (2021) 7^ ed., Maggioli - Apogeo. - Slides and other teaching material distributed in classroom. mode During the course, the following teaching methods will be applied: -lectures -working groups -case studies -presentations and assignment -experts and practitioners speeches Teaching activities integrate face-to-face lectures with the analysis of business cases performed by both the instructor and the students, and keynote speakers’ presentations. Students will be required to join practical training sessions and analyze or discuss, individually or within small groups, case studies focused on the resolution of organizational problems and the definition of the different organizational configurations that can be adopted in different strategic and environmental contexts. These sessions are useful to evaluate student's ability to put into practice the methods of organizational design and analysis acquired during the lectures.

119521 - GREEN AREAS FOR WELLNESS AND SPORTS ACTIVITIES	-	8	-	-	Learning objectives The course aims to provide the students with the following learning outcomes:  to know how to independently and competently organize excursions on forest and mountain paths, respecting and protecting the natural environment;  to acquire theoretical and practical-applicative knowledge necessary for constructing and managing green areas for carrying out sports activities. As regards knowledge and understanding, the student, during the course, acquires the theoretical notions to interpret the complexity of natural and semi-natural ecosystems to enhance their meaning in sporting activities while respecting and protecting the natural environment. Applied knowledge and understanding will be pursued through integrated teaching including theoretical lessons, case studies, and laboratory activities in classrooms equipped for exercises. In particular, the student will be able to understand and interpret natural, semi-natural, and urban landscapes, developing independent judgment in planning sports itineraries such as trekking. Communication skills will also be developed aimed at involving citizens in sports in nature. These skills will be developed by drafting reports and/or projects to be exhibited during the exam. Finally, the student will acquire the ability to learn through an active methodology aimed at creating an environment conducive to teaching-learning also through a conscious use of digital technologies to develop the student's continuous learning abilities

o They will gain insights into the infrastructure and potential of rural settings to host sports and wellness activities.
2. Applying Knowledge and Understanding:
o Students will learn to apply this integrated knowledge to design and implement wellness and re-educative programs tailored to non-competitive sports activities that utilize the unique aspects of farms and agritourism.
o They will use their understanding to enhance the appeal and functionality of rural properties as venues for sports-related activities.
3. Making Judgements:
o Students will be able to critically evaluate the effectiveness of sports and wellness programs in rural settings. They will consider factors such as environmental sustainability, local community benefits, and participant well-being.
o They will assess the suitability of various rural properties for different types of sports and wellness activities based on geographic, economic, and social criteria.
4. Communication Skills:
o Students will develop the ability to communicate the benefits and procedures of sports and wellness programs in rural settings to a diverse audience, including property owners, program participants, and potential investors.
5. Learning Skills:
o Students will enhance their ability to continuously learn and adapt their knowledge to new developments in the fields of rural development, sports management, and wellness.
