General Information

Overview

This unit will provide you with foundational skills and knowledge covering contemporary business issues, organisational and business practices. You will have the opportunity to develop essential business skills, gain knowledge across various business contexts, and examine the functions of diverse organisational types. We will assess the impacts of environmental forces on organisations, examine the risks confronting businesses, and discuss practices adopted to mitigate these risks, including innovation, e-commerce, knowledge management, and cross-cultural management. Throughout the unit, we will utilize illustrative real-world examples, and case studies to provide tangible insights into the course concepts. This unit will enable you to engage in robust discussions regarding governance options for different organisations and examine contemporary processes like regionalisation, emerging world markets, global governance and globalisation. This unit will cultivate transferable business skills for potential future consulting roles, and management skills for organisational leadership positions.
