Est.imated Completion Time: 3 months

Overview

Strategic Management entails the establishment of an organization's direction and the implementation and evaluation of that direction in view of the organization's external environment and its internal capabilities. The principal aim of this course is the transfer and adaptation of the principles of business strategic management to the Department of Defense and other government agencies. In previous courses, students concentrated on the functional elements of management (e.g., accounting, finance, acquisition, logistics, contracting, etc.). This course addresses the challenges of setting direction and implementing strategies for the total system or whole organization. Cases and approaches from the public and private sectors enable students to develop the knowledge, skills, and abilities to strategically think, plan, and manage.
