Introduksjon

Marketing managers need a thorough understanding of consumer behavior to succeed in today's fast-paced, globalized, and digital world. They need to be able to a) conceptualize why consumers behave and decide as they do, b) generate valid customer insights based on a variety of data, and c) apply self-generated and pre-existing insights in their own decision-making. 

This course is designed to provide you with the necessary knowledge and skills to tackle the aforementioned challenges. It will introduce you to key consumer behaviour problems and perspectives and to the contexts in which they arise. It will help you develop your ability to structure and critically analyse such problems and provide you with useful tools and concepts for solving them.
