Stream Outline
Management examines the processes, conceptual expertise and work functions involved in managing people and organisations effectively. Rather than focusing purely on the tasks, roles or functions of managers, the program examines the complex relations between power, people and resources that are the key challenges to effective management. Theories and predictions concerning new organisational forms, future business trends, and more effective management practices are studied in addition to established knowledge in the discipline. The overall objective is to equip future managers to effectively apply knowledge and skill to the complex problems facing organisations in today's dynamic global business environment.
