This course provides a unique blend of administrative theory with organizational behaviour. Technical skills covered include planning, goal setting, management by objectives, organizing tournament draws, budget making and financial management, fund raising, legal liability and decision making. These technical skills are examined with special attention given to the impact of traditional organizational factors such as personality, motivation, leadership, power and politics, and communication. Cutting-edge issues including emotions, trust, work-life balance, stress in the workplace, globalization, diversity and ethical decisions are interwoven throughout the course rather than presented as stand-alone topics. Case studies and problem-based learning exercises are used extensively to provide the student with a conceptual understanding of real-life administration.
