Constructing bridges between areas of knowledge: from literature to management

Despite some differences, the domains of Literature and Management have overlapping areas, which enables the use of one of them (in this case, Literature) to study and widen the knowledge on the other (Business). The present article aims to show some of the contributions from the arts to organizational studies and reporting and sharing the experience of the Literature & Management Project with the academic community, as well as offering critical comments on it. The Project, through the reading and analysis of selected texts, is not only intended to be another source of knowledge acquisition, but also to develop and enhance competencies required for future professional activities of the Business School students. Although the focus has been the teaching and learning process for university students, it can be expanded to the corporate environment, where it can be developed as seminars and role-playing activities. This represents a wide field that has not yet been fully explored.
