Disgrifiad cryno


This module will use already existing (and currently non-assessed) activities and workshops run for MSc Management and MBA level students as points of reference from which such students can, i) base two written reports covering the subject of managerial skills; as well as ii) critically evaluate the managerial skills ability of themselves and others in their team(s). By so doing (and, along with the research involved), students' awareness and knowledge of the subject area will be greatly enhanced.
