Students will explore the business environment, including types of organisations, business objectives, and stakeholder conflict, financial information and decision making, as well as people in business such as leadership, employee rights, and recruitment methods. The second half of the course will focus on both micro and macro economic concepts, such as demand and supply, government interventions in market failures, and government macroeconomic goals.
