MGT 421 - Management Practices


3 Credit(s) | Lecture |
Course can be counted for credit once

Description:
Focuses on job-relevant skills that entry-level and middle-level managers need to acquire if they are to meet the challenges posed by problems in their work that involve dealing with people. The course focuses, for example, not on theories of group dynamics, but on how a manager can effectively chair a committee or lead a project team; not on theories of power but on short and long term strategies for acquiring and using power. The course focuses, therefore, on skill acquisition and practice rather than on understanding conceptual material. Required readings are used to further understanding of concepts introduced in MGT 303  and to facilitate skill practice.

Enrollment Requirements:
Prerequisites: MGT 303  and a minimum of 60 credits

Management students only
