Course description
Private sector, not-for-profit and government organisations operate in increasingly complex global systems. Effective management of these organisations requires an understanding of their economic, social, political and cultural contexts. This course will provide students with an introduction to these contexts forming the foundations for their study of leadership, human resources, government and business relations, strategy and issues involving communications and the media.
