guest lecture Deloitte in the lecture fundamentals of business administration

As part of the lecture "fundamentals of business administration" we had the special opportunity to welcome Christoph Moser from Deloitte as a guest speaker. Mr. Moser, an experienced expert in management consulting, gave the students exciting insights into the practice of business administration and shared valuable experiences from his many years of professional practice at Deloitte. In particular he was able to give tips for applicants and spoke about challenges and opportunities in a dynamic business world. The lecture gave our students the opportunity to combine theory with practice and take away valuable ideas for their own professional future. A big thank you to Christoph Moser and Deloitte for this inspiring insight into the world of business administration!

7th Qual.met Symposium 2024: New perspectives on human-machine interaction

The 7th Qual.met Symposium took place from 19th-20th September 2024 in Innsbruck - in cooperation with the Chair of Business Administration, in particular Corporate Management at Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg and the University of Education Tyrol. The aim of the Qual.met /Symposium is to promote dialogue and exchange between qualitative researchers in German-speaking countries.

This year the symposium focussed on the highly topical subject of human-machine interaction in the age of artificial intelligence. The event provided a platform for scientists from various disciplines to exchange new findings and discuss challenges. The 15th participants clearly demonstrated how profoundly artificial intelligence is changing the world of work, social interaction and the way we conduct research. The findings related to:

• human-machine interaction, focussing on dynamics, user experiences, understanding of roles and challenges;
• leadership and management, which were analysed in sustainability management and education;
• methodological approaches, which were presented in new combinations and digital applications;
• artificial intelligence, the use of which was discussed in a practice-orientated and critical manner.

The 7th Qual.met Symposium 2024 made it clear that human-machine interaction is a complex and dynamically developing field. Artificial intelligence offers both opportunities and risks and requires interdisciplinary collaboration in order to fully utilise its potential. The research results presented provide valuable insights for the design of future technologies and working environments.
