The McLaren School of Management offers seven minors for students in non-business majors.
The minors are reflected on students’ transcripts, and require a letter grade and a minimum GPA of 2.0 in the minor. Students interested in a Business minor should consult with their adviser to declare the minor and to review the specific course requirements and necessary prerequisites for the courses.
The Humanistic Management Minor will introduce students to a people-oriented management perspective that promotes the well-being and dignity of human beings in organizations and the supremacy of people over material goods and wealth creation when determining organizational goals. Critical to Humanistic Management is belief in individual freedom, autonomy, participation, cooperation, dialogue, respect, diversity, and generosity, as key drivers of well-being, dignity, and organizational success. Guided by these beliefs, Humanistic Management proposes to partner with individuals at work rather, than control or command, and aspires to create more egalitarian and humane organizations. Simply put, organizations should work for the betterment of human beings and society, not the other way around.
