This capstone course for management concentrators in the studies in leadership and management program emphasizes the integration and application of previously learned management concepts found in private, public, and military organizational settings. Using behavioral science approaches, economic and financial decision-making, and quantitative methodologies, the course focuses on four management systems: planning, organizing, leading and controlling. Management ethics, human diversity and quality management will receive special emphasis. MG421 uses the case study method that requires comprehensive, in-depth analysis of realistic management situations as the culmination of the cadet's general management studies. Two individual and three group written case analyses will examine behavioral sciences, economic, and quantitative considerations of management in private, public, and military organizational settings.
