One of the most important skills any professional can possess is the ability to effectively
manage and lead others. Effective management creates a functioning work environment
– leading to a successful company. Every day brings a rich mixture of unique challenges
that will require an understanding of management issues, legal and ethical problems,
human resources as well as strategic or environmental pressures.
The Spears School of Business offers online programs as an alternative way to earn
a degree. We believe that students should have access to high-quality, affordable
education regardless of their schedule or location. Online courses are available 24/7
and are designed with multimedia content and virtual activities to promote student
collaboration.
