Introduction to Business in Practice - Webinar

Join our Introduction to Business in Practice session online and learn more about our innovative 'Business in Practice' module at Warwick Business School.

The Business in Practice module is an intensive simulation designed to bridge academic theory and real-world business application. Instead of a traditional dissertation, students engage in a dynamic, team-based business simulation that mirrors real-life challenges. Through a blend of online and real-world activities, participants gain hands-on experience across all key business functions, enhancing their understanding of teamwork, strategy, and decision-making in a practical context.

Dr Omid Omidvar - Associate Professor of Organization Studies

His research examines the complex interplay between digital and computational technologies and organizational processes. He investigates how the integration of algorithmic ensembles transforms decision-making, routines, and organizational adaptation, with particular attention to the societal implications of these changes. His work on algorithmic inertia reveals how organizations' reliance on predictive algorithms hampers responses in dynamic environments, while his research on the use of digital technologies in distributed contexts reveals how novel forms of organizing might emerge through digital affordances.

He has published in leading journals including Academy of Management Annals, Journal of Management Studies, MIT Sloan Management Review, and Organization Studies.
