BUS 480 - Strategic Management

Credits: 3 Total Hours: 60

How can organizations thrive in today’s volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous environment? In this course, students examine the science and art of strategic management through discussions, cases, and in-class activities. Students will develop their ability to evaluate implicit assumptions that impact strategic choices. We will assess various ways, traditional and emerging, for conceptualizing success and value in organizations. Complex business issues, risks, and challenges faced by top-level managers, business owners and organizational leaders will be analyzed to identify strategic opportunities. Learners will design short- and long-term solutions and make recommendations for implementation.
