BUS 447 - Personal Brand and Career Development

Unit(s): 4

Offers students the necessary skills to continually apply career experiences as they become leaders in their organizations and communities. This culminating course for management majors is a summative academic experience where students develop a portfolio of the knowledge, skills, abilities, and other characteristics they have gained during their academic careers. This portfolio facilitates a comprehensive and compelling summary of each student’s professional selves. Students also participate in self-assessment and reflective activities. Reflective activities enable students to develop a personal narrative that will act as a future powerful tool of individual and professional development. Finally, this course involves one or more ‘crucible experience’ events. Crucible experiences are those that enable individuals to learn from differences, prevail during difficulty, and meet great expectations and subsequently become successful leaders.
