Program Overview

Having a solid grasp of the Foundation of Management principles applies to all leaders managing different sizes of organizations — large or small, for-profit, or not-for-profit. Even solopreneurs and owners of small businesses need to be concerned about management principles in terms of planning, organizing, leading, and controlling the different functions of the company to be successful as an organization. Studies have shown that the most common reason attributed to small business failure is a failure on the part of management and execution.

Most companies operate in industries that are becoming a highly volatile, complex, and competitive environment. Hence, a leader’s primary responsibility is to address day-to-day issues promptly and collaboratively. The leader must be able to plan, organize, lead, and control well the various functions in their department and area of responsibility. This program will allow first-line leaders, supervisors, and managers to develop the necessary skills to execute their roles and responsibilities in the company.
