B) CAPACITY 1. to apply the knowledge learned in order to identify and describe the organizations in relation to the current context; 2. to analyze and understand the organizational processes, especially the cultural and communicative ones and their dynamics; 3. to recognize, observing with different points of view, the processes and languages that characterize the work environment in relation to the diversity that characterizes them, in order to promote positive and virtuous relationships within the organization and in relations with the outside world; 4. to use the concepts learned as a sort of "toolbox" to deal with today's complexity, reflecting on one's professional action, widening one's point of view, developing one's own judgment, communication and relationship skills both with the patient both with the organizational context.
