In whatever career you ultimately pursue you will be working with people. Whether it’s leading teams or working alongside others, you will always be managing people in some capacity. Understanding how to motivate and reward people, recognizing the qualities for successful leadership and how to implement change are just a few key skills needed in the business world. More specifically, these are skills you can hone during your MBA career though HOP classes.
In order to truly progress in business, you need to have a solid understanding in all the functional areas -- Finance, Strategy, Marketing, Operations and Human Resources. You get this exposure through your core classes and additional electives. You may choose to concentrate in HOP because of the skills you can gain are transferable across functions and can be applied to any career. Some of the classes that fall under an HOP designation include:
- Strategic Alignment of Human Capital
