The program offers students the opportunity to acquire knowledge about the management of human and physical resources and to acquire skills useful in the management of any organization. From time-to-time every organization experiences the need to renew its ability to compete and often uses external advisors to assist in the process. These consulting processes often involve extensive analyses of the firm's competitive position, capabilities, organizational processes, culture, etc. Once a new direction is developed the process of implementing the changes must be managed.
