Preface

The purpose of this web site is to provide information and materials for students enrolled in Wayne Smith's Management 360 course, Class #  12609, for the Fall, 2009 semester. This course meets Fri 8:00am - 10:50am (8/28 - 12/11, 16 weeks) in OV25 [ Campus Map, Google Maps, Google Earth ]. This course is offered by the Department of Management in the College of Business and Economics at California State University, Northridge (CSUN). CSU Northridge is one of 23 campuses in the California State University system.

My email address is wayne.smith@csun.edu. For email sent to me by students, the Subject line should start with "[CSUN Mgt360]" (without the quotes). Interested students may learn more about me by reviewing my personal web page. The PDF materials on this page require the "free" Acrobat Reader.

The dates in parentheses indicate when the document was last updated.

Note: Materials listed as (CSUN only) are restricted to CSUN students, faculty, and staff only. To access these restricted materials, CSUN stakeholders will need to enter their CSUN email address and their CSUN password.

Notes

The following notes are updates and changes that occur prior to the beginning of class (in descending chronological order).

The above notes are also available as a subscription feed [ .atom ]. A subscription feed is a contemporary approach to automated notification.

Pre-Course Materials

These materials can be accessed before the first class session. These resources can be useful for prospective students desiring to gain a better appreciation for the subject matter of this course without enrolling in the course or purchasing the required textbook(s). These materials are especially useful for non-business majors who are considering enrolling in this course. Materials in this particular section will not appear on any quiz or exam, although an exception may be made for the final exam and the specific details of that change will be discussed in class.

Course Materials

These materials should be reviewed before the first class session.

General Materials

The following materials apply to all my courses independent of subject matter.

Why Organizational Behavior?

These materials should be reviewed before the first class session.

Writing Materials

These materials should be reviewed before the first class session.

Textbook Chapters

There is a small chance that the bookstore may need to 'special order' books for students, particularly those students who wish to add the course after the first week. Therefore, these first five chapters of the textbook can help a student obtain the requirement course content while waiting for the textbook to arrive at the bookstore. Use your CSUN email address and password to access each of these .pdf files.

Assignments and Reports

The following materials are the tentative assignments and reports for this course. They also may be updated and expanded as needed.

Additional Materials

The following materials don't "fit" anywhere else neatly.

Further Study

The following is a collection of materials in various media that students should review just before the end of the the course.
