The Importance and Power of Music in our Society
Music plays an important role in our daily lives and is woven into the fabric of society. We listen to music while alone or in company, in a dance club or at home, through simple headphones or via high-end speakers, as background or as foreground, after we get up or before we go to bed. Music accompanies us when we are traveling, doing sports, shopping, working or relaxing. This omnipresence of music raises several questions: how does music affect our lives? What is the relation between the society we live in and the role, function, and position of music within that society? How is music influenced by and does music influence social, political, economic, technological, and multiple other developments? Do these questions trigger you? Music and Society provides a thorough introduction to the various ways in which music and society are connected through engaging lectures, insightful interviews, challenging assignments, interesting readings, and of course a lot of musical examples. The course aims at increasing your insights on where, how and why we listen to music, how music contributes to shaping our identity, how music forms, expresses, and subverts political ideas, and how music affects our norms and values.

La gestión de personas y equipos
En una ocurrente frase, Peter Drucker, pionero en el campo de la gestión empresarial, afirmó en una ocasión que las personas tienen una tendencia perversa a comportarse como seres humanos. Con ello quería señalar algo que es evidente: que las personas no somos máquinas y, por ello, no somos programables. Sin embargo, sí que tenemos unas necesidades que satisfacer, y unas características comunes. Y conocerlas - qué motiva a las personas en el ámbito laboral, qué necesidades buscan satisfacer, y por qué - ayuda a entender mejor el comportamiento en las organizaciones. Por ejemplo, nos sirve para dar respuesta a las siguientes cuestiones: ¿cómo es posible que aún ganando mucho dinero una persona no esté motivada para trabajar? O lo contrario, ¿cómo es posible que a pesar de ganar muy poco dinero una persona esté dispuesta a trabajar con ahínco? ¿Qué comportamientos y cualidades debe mostrar un buen líder? ¿Es factible desarrollar dichas capacidades? ¿Por qué hay equipos que tienen un alto rendimiento mientras otros no? Y a la vez, ¿cómo medir el rendimiento de un equipo? ¿Qué es la cultura de la organización y qué importancia tiene? Durante estas cuatro semanas de curso sobre gestión de personas y equipos, abordaremos distintos enfoques y marcos teóricos que nos permitan dar respuesta a todas estas preguntas. Al final de la segunda sesión entrevistaremos a Esther Jiménez, directiva e investigadora en el área de las competencias de liderazgo. Al final de la tercera sesión entrevistaremos a Federic Sabriá, profesor de Operaciones y jugador Olímpico de Waterpolo, que nos hablará sobre el trabajo en equipo. Y al final de la cuarta a Miquel Lladó, Profesor y antiguo CEO y Directivo de grandes corporaciones (como Bimbo o Sara Lee). Con todo ello, el alumno tendrá la posibilidad de asimilar los principales conceptos relacionados con la dirección de personas en las organizaciones, así como de entender desde un punto de vista práctico lo que supone la compleja tarea de gestionar personas: potenciando que estén motivados; liderando individuos y equipos; facilitando un trabajo en equipo eficaz; y fomentando una cultura de respeto y rendimiento.
