Lecture 1 New paradigms

In this lecture professor Alava challenges us to rethink many of our earlier assumptions under the topic: borders are braking –paradigms are changing. He talks about how leading and managing have changed, how authorities are braking, what is the new definition of control, and what are the new definitions to the loyalty and commitment.
