Acerca de esta escucha

 Managing Around is a bi-weekly educational podcast about Social Science, Culture and Management. The host of the show is Dr Maik Arnold, Professor for Social Work Management at the University of Applied Sciences Dresden (@ProfManagement) who talks about pressing issues in Teaching and Learning in Higher Education, Social Work Management, Management History and Culture. Unlike other podcasts, Managing Around takes a transdisciplinary approach and views management phenomena through the lens of social sciences and humanities. Besides, it is the only podcast, so far, that also covers works and themes in social science poetry.Copyright ProfManagement Ciencia Ciencias Sociales

Picture your organisation as a community garden: each element, from planning beds to composting, represents a key management activity. In this episode, we’ll walk through each garden function in order, sharing an intuitive narrative and concrete examples from professional social work practice.

    70. Navigating Resistance to Change: Practical Strategies for Social Work Leaders
    Mar 31 2025
    Today, we're diving into a topic that affects every organization, every team, and quite frankly, all of us – resistance to change. As Waldman and O'Reilly (2022) found in their research, resistance to change is one of the main reasons why up to 70% of organizational changes fail to achieve their desired results. We will unpack why this happens and, more importantly, how you can successfully navigate it – especially in social work settings where the stakes are often incredibly high.

  • 69. Rethinking Culture: Beyond the Clash

    69. Rethinking Culture: Beyond the Clash
    Feb 27 2025
    In today’s episode, we’re diving into the topic of “culture”–what it is, where it came from, and how recent thinking challenges our assumptions. One key idea we’ll be looking at is that culture isn’t a rigid, unchanging force pushing people apart but rather a dynamic interplay of multiple influences that can unite us if we learn how to forge a shared sense of belonging. By exploring this idea, we’ll see how moving beyond the notion of “clashing cultures” can open up more productive and inclusive ways of working together.
