COURSE OBJECTIVES - CONTENT AND METHODS
The Management Course is designed to familiarize middle/senior line
and staff managers with both the theory and the practical problems of
management. The underlying assumption of the course is that management
development is a process of growth on the job and that management skills
can be learned. The course enables the participants to examine their job
activities in an environment where, guided by the instructors, they can
critically examine their own actions and styles of leadership. In addi-
tion, they exchange ideas with managers from other components and develop
an understanding of the complex relationships that exist among the people,
the pattern of organization, and the purposes of the Agency. -The course
approaches the problems of management in the Agency by discussing the
formal and informal structures, concepts of leadership and communication,
the problems of personnel management, and theories of planning and con-
trolling. Specific exercises are designed to enable the student to
practice some of the important management skills in a laboratory type
of situation.
The content of the course is developed through problem-solving
exercises, case analysis and discussions, lectures, and filmed pre-
sentations.
