This course is an accelerated examination of the flow and management of capital in an organization - with particular discussion to the metrics used to understand and manage risk, as well as sustain shareholder/stakeholder value.
Through case discussions and applied learning material, this course helps students develop the knowledge, skills, critical thinking abilities, and behaviors required of any manager, not only those specialized in finance. Although the main focus of this course is for profit-seeking firms, much of what is learned has applicability for organizations in the not-for-profit and governmental sectors as well. The course will raise ethical issues where appropriate.
