Bachelor of Commerce (Honours) with Managing People and Organizations Concentraion
ObjectivesWhat kind of career do you aspire to five years from now? Whether you envision a career in accounting, finance, international business, or owning your own business, all career paths lead to the same question: how effectively can you interact with clients, coworkers, subordinates, senior managers and a host of other people? The managing people and organizations (MPO) concentration is specifically designed to develop the highly valuable skills of managing and understanding people at individual, group and organizational levels. There are a lot of brilliant minds on the job, but employers are looking for special individuals who can effectively communicate their ideas, and energize and mobilize others in pursuit of these ideas. The MPO concentration gives you the edge in the job market because you will have the education and tools to understand the dynamics of human, group and organizational behaviour. Whether you’re working in a virtual organization, engaged in B2B e-commerce, or trying to help organizations grapple with changing demographics, being able to relate, excite and connect with people is a valuable skill that will set you apart.
