    Course This course is designed to provide you with the basic level of knowledge
    Description: and skills in management and interpersonal skills necessary for more
    advanced business study and for employment success. The focus of
    this course is on the effective management of organizational systems.
    Management requires the skillful application of both art and science.
    The primary objectives of this course are to teach you facts from the
    science of management. Throughout the course the ethical implications
    of management will be emphasized. Furthermore, we will examine
    management in a global context.

    The central question of this course is: “What is an organization and


    what must be done for organizations to function effectively?” The
    fundamental and powerful concepts organizing the material are:
    Management, Planning, Organizing, Leading, and Controlling. Finally,
    this course addresses these concepts through a multidisciplinary
    perspective. The guiding disciplines of this course are psychology,
    economics, and sociology. By combining these approaches, this course
    provides students with different lenses through which to view real world
    issues and problems.

    This course seeks:


    Objectives:
    To provide the student with a conceptual knowledge of the basic
    management functions.

    To provide the student with a conceptual foundation in organizational


    theory and organizational behavior;
    MGMT 301-03 Raho
    Fall 2010 Page 2

    To prepare the student to make complex decisions under conditions of


    uncertainty and ethical dilemma;

    To provide the opportunity for students to assess their managerial


    abilities and to plan for personal skills development;

    To develop an awareness of, and deeper appreciation for, typical


    behavioral problems experienced in organizations.

    These objectives will be pursued through an integration of theory and


    practice. Thus, each concept presented will be grounded in theory,
    related to contemporary management practices, and examined in the
    context of current domestic and international climates.
