A Song of GANTT Charts: Teaching Management with Science Fiction and Fantasy

October 10, 2024

How is a Star Wars movie like an internal audit? What lessons can we learn about toxic leadership from the story of Daenerys Targaryen? The author of the BSFA Award-winning essay series Project Management from Rogue One and the BSFA and World Fantasy Award-nominated book Management Lessons from Game of Thrones talks about how to use popular science fiction and fantasy series to increase student engagement and promote learning retention.

Takeaways:

1. How to use science fiction and fantasy series in business studies teaching

2. How fictional narratives provide insight into real-life organizations

3. The wider role of narratives and storytelling in the classroom

This is a FREE webinar, but registration is required.
