Additional information

Unit content:

The unit aims to provide you with an understanding of economics for managers so that you have the knowledge to interpret the economy around you, and the place of your organisation within it. This unit will be interactive with a lot of class discussions, where students learn to apply primarily micro, but some macroeconomic, concepts to current business developments. By adding these concepts to your mental toolkit, the insight into the business world that you develop will help you not only become a more informed consumer, but also a more effective employee or manager.
