Welcome to Leadership, Team Building & Effective Management
I’m delighted that you’ve chosen 715 as one of the elective
experiences in your advanced degree program here at UWM.
In the context of our Mission, you’ll be able to plan to achieve
important leadership, team-building and effective management
goals of your own as we explore our key topic areas. The topics
are taught by 35 engaging, data-driven teachers using
contemporary research targeted for practicing managers.
During our time together, you’ll write three Case Memos to
provide specific solutions to topic-driven cases. You’ll create
three Personal Apps to transfer what you learn in 715 to your
own professional or personal life. You’ll contribute to an ongoing
robust conversation on our Mission topics. You’ll interact with
five local Featured Guests who will share their leadership stories
with us. Finally, you’ll take part in the Ultimate 715 Challenge.
This Critical Task includes giving and receiving feedback about
how well you and your small team performed in this demanding
real-world test of your ability to apply what we’re learning.
You and I will connect in class. We’ll also interact via the Dropbox
as you submit your Case Memos and Personal Apps. I’ll provide
written feedback to you on these Critical Tasks.
If there is anything you need to make this the best possible
learning and development opportunity for you, and, who knows,
maybe even one of the best experiences in your UWM graduate
career, please let me know.
As your “boss” in 715, the most important part of my job is to
make sure that you’re 100% successful achieving our Mission,
your own personal goals for the experience and earning the most
you can for the work you deliver.
My promise is to provide the direction and support you want and
need to be as successful as you want to be in BUSMGMT 715.
