I will use the variance analysis to keep profits within the organization.…

The learning assurance process is an SBA initiative to continuously assess and improve the quality of the SBA’s undergraduate and graduate programs. The SBA has identified a set of learning goals and objectives for its undergraduate programs (each learning goal has between 1 and 5 learning objectives). These goals will be assessed on a two-year cycle. MGT 435 (Management Strategies & Policies) has been identified as an undergraduate course that will be used for assessment of one of these goals. The learning assurance process will be overseen by the Learning Assurance Committee (LAC), which is an SBA standing committee.…

It’s really refreshing to be enrolled in a subject that “forces” you reflect on your own life. Most subjects in this degree are filled with calculators and theory, that although interesting, only stimulate the right side of the brain.

Management in any setting is the area that keeps the job environment stable. Management abides by a set of parameters of organization, planning, controlling, and directing. Not only that, but the person must also possess leadership skills. The graduate has learned to be a leader in the learning teams when she is usually a follower.

Without time management, everything would fall behind schedule and the facility would suffer to the point where it could go out of business. Time management also has to be used at home so that life does not suffer too. A fine…
Taking this course of Associates Capstone in Management has affected me in my professional development as a student because it was a reflection of all the classes that I have taken for the last two years to achieve my Associates Degree in Management. This has helped me deciding whether I will be going on for my Bachelor’s degree in management, which I will be going for that in about three to six months due to moving states and jobs. I really enjoyed learning something new every day and/or every week. In the near future I would like to open up my own business and this has helped me tremendously.…
"Never underestimate the importance of the 'softer' management lessons you learn at HBS—the ones that revolve around working with and leading others. As your responsibilities in any organization expand, the people-related issues become increasingly important. The technical tools that seem so important when you are a student will help only up to a point."…
