Programme: leading teams and reading the market
Specialisation: two specialisations
Placements: how you are taught
Languages: business English
After graduation: where graduates work

Management at WSB Merito University in Poznań is a bachelor's programme taught in English for school-leavers who picture themselves leading people in companies that operate across borders. It is a broad business course in which leadership and projects share the timetable with marketing, finance and psychology.

Programme: leading teams and reading the market

The heart of the plan is running a team and an organisation. You learn how to motivate an international group, how to organise demanding projects with a proper methodology, and how to judge a firm's position with tools of strategic analysis. A psychosocial strand shows how to handle tensions at work and keep the atmosphere in a team healthy.

Around that core sit the business foundations and the market side. The class list includes Economics, Business Mathematics, Statistics, Financial Market, Marketing, Corporate Branding, Human Capital Management and Business Negotiations, while Managerial Accounting, Legal Risks in Business and Change Management add the finance and law angle. Cultural Differences prepares you for mixed teams, and Business Communication trains you to put your point across.

Specialisation: two specialisations

Entrepreneurship and International Business are the two specialisations you can choose within the programme.

Placements: how you are taught

Work placements are written into the plan, and teaching leans on practice:

group projects built around genuine business problems
simulations in which you take decisions under market conditions
case studies drawn from real situations
talks by practitioners who work in the field
a team diploma project, defended before a committee, whose direction you set yourself

Languages: business English

Business English runs alongside a separate foreign-language class in the early semesters, so the vocabulary of the field is something you train rather than merely meet.

After graduation: where graduates work

Possible career routes

International firmsmanaging teams and putting in place strategies that raise an organisation's efficiency
Marketingleading projects and designing campaigns shaped around market needs
People and adviceHR advisory work that develops employees' skills
Finance and strategybudgets and results in the financial sector, or growth plans for an organisation

⇑Definitions and quotes

Management

Management (or managing) is the administration of an organization, whether it is a business, a not-for-profit organization, or government body. Management includes the activities of setting the strategy of an organization and coordinating the efforts of its employees (or of volunteers) to accomplish its objectives through the application of available resources, such as financial, natural, technological, and human resources. The term "management" may also refer to those people who manage an organization.

Management

It is better to first get the right people on the bus, the wrong people off the bus, and the right people in the right seats, and then figure out where to drive.

Jim C. Collins (2001). Good to Great: Why Some Companies Make the Leap...and Others Don't p. 41.

Wikiquote

Management

Poorly managed corporations, disorganized businesses, and badly led service agencies experience crisis daily and most will eventually fail. In contrast, the danger is to well organized, smooth running institutions that may not recognize a building crisis. Too often, sound organizations rely on their normal modus operandi to pull them through a crisis. It might. But at what cost? And what if it does not pull them through?

Wheeler L. Baker, Crisis Management: A Model for Managers (1993), p. 6

Management

Management as an activity has always existed to make people’s desires through organized effort. Management facilitates the efforts of people in organized groups and arises when people seek to cooperate to achieve goals.
