MGT 460 - Business Policy/Strategic Management

This is a fourth-year business course; an integrative capstone course which should be taken in your final year. The course is designed to have the student apply business policies using a cross-functional perspective to strategically manage organizations. The student will learn to see the organization as a whole; to step out of a functional mind-set. The student will understand how the various pieces of the business puzzle fit together, and will recognize why the different parts of a business need to be managed in strategic harmony for an organization to operate in a successful fashion. The student will learn and understand the concepts and theories of strategic management. The student will be given an opportunity to apply your knowledge in skill-building exercises, short cases, and longer more complex cases. Computer simulations may be used to reinforce learning.
Prerequisites: MGT-425 is the required corequisite course.
