...discussions. Emphasis is on the integration of Administrative Studies subject areas with which the student has previously become familiar; to provide a framework for the analysis of strategic problems of general management. COURSE OVERVIEW This course examines the challenges of the strategic management process - identifying, formulating, evaluating and implementing viable business strategies. The emphasis is on issues that affect the success of the entire organization. As such, we will view the firm as a whole, but we will draw upon, and integrate into our analysis, your understanding of the various functional areas of business and the external factors. To increase your competence in managing the strategic process, extensive use of the case study method is employed. This allows us to practice business decision-making skills in simulated management roles. To maximize the learning experience, it is essential that all students be prepared to discuss the assigned cases. Therefore, student participation is essential for the success of this course. In addition to learning about strategic concepts, you can expect to further develop your abilities in sizing up complex business situations and identifying the core problems or issues. You will have opportunities to analyze qualitative and quantitative data, both internal and external to the firm, and assessing what implications it may hold for a firm's success. Through the case studies, you will learn to identify and evaluate existing and...
