# Introduction

This free course, Understanding organisational value, provides you with a short introduction to value creation in the 21st century. It will highlight some key theories and perspectives, and encourage you to examine your own views of value and how you can create new types of organisational value. Organisational value is the ability of an organisation to benefit a wide range of stakeholders, from shareholders to employees, consumers and the wider community.

This OpenLearn course is an adapted extract from the Open University module B872 Creating and sustaining value.
