MGMT 1301

Management skills are essential, regardless of field or discipline. This course introduces foundational management concepts, exploring how people and processes are similar but vary across government, social enterprises, non-profits and business environments. Students will explore basic management issues of planning, organizing, leading and controlling to respond to internal and external pressures. Students will examine the interactions among the environment, technology, society, organizations and people, in a world with limited resources. The course introduces students to management issues with an emphasis on creativity, leadership and innovation, and is the starting point for the Management degree and minor, which are flexible programs that allow you to blend management skills with other fields and subjects you care about.
