MGT100 Organisations And Management (8)
CSU Discipline Area: Management (MANAG)
Duration: One session
Abstract:
The subject offers an overview of management approaches and methods, and principles of organisational behaviour. This subject will build the students’ appreciation that there can be a variety of understandings surrounding organisation activities and events and that there will rarely be a single “right way” in responding to any organisational situation. It examines various key management theories and models in the areas of planning, organising, communication, teamwork, ethics, corporate social responsibility, leadership, decision making, motivation, and controlling. Students will apply theoretical concepts and models to management problems and issues in the context of the global business environment.
