The following experiences led to development of skills in
this area:
Courses
MAN 4720; Strategic Management; Spring 1997
One of the requirements for this class was to do a group project
and develop a Strategic Plan for a fictitious company. I was
selected by my peers to be the group leader. I coordinated the
efforts of four other classmates, planned weekly meetings and
delegated assignments, and ensured completion of the project in
a timely manner. We received an "A" on our project and
the professor asked to use our report as a sample for future
classes.
