Traditionally, managers set the goals of their organizations and decide how best to achieve them by allocating the necessary human, financial, physical, and information resources. Managers also coordinate work among members of the organization, provide leadership and motivation, and monitor progress toward achieving their organizations' goals. While the program focus is on the professional manager, much of what is learned in the classroom is applicable to students? lives outside of work.
