Faculty Message
Sound management creates a competitive organization, while loose management guides a company to difficulties in the long run and makes stakeholders, including employees and their families, face an unexpected, tough environment. Finance is an excellent tool to examine the current situation with facts and logic, and also to evaluate the impact and feasibility of strategic options.
Everybody need not become a financial specialist. However, understanding how to use finance is indispensable for a good management officer.
My class is designed to create good management officers, rather than financial specialists.
