In this unit students explore the key processes and considerations for managing a business efficiently and effectively to achieve business objectives. Students examine different types of businesses and their respective objectives and stakeholders. They investigate strategies to manage both staff and business operations to meet objectives, and develop an understanding of the complexity and challenge of managing businesses. Students compare theoretical perspectives with current practice through the use of contemporary Australian and global business case studies from the past four years.
In this area of study students investigate considerations for the effective management of employees to ensure business objectives are achieved. They consider employee motivation in terms of Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs, Locke and Latham’s Goal Setting Theory, and Lawrence and Nohria’s Four Drive Theory. Using these theories of motivation and motivation strategies, students propose and justify possible strategies for employee management in contemporary business case studies from the past four years. Students study an overview of workplace relations, including the main participants and their roles in the dispute resolution process.
