Document Summary
The only thing we won"t be tested on is the reading on cases (first chapter) Globalization chapter to be discussed in class next week after the term test. More managers have to be effective change leaders: ex. Tim horton"s just fired 350 people; how do you manage employee morale, make such a radical decision, manage your reputation after being purchased by a foreign company etc. As consumers, how will changes in management affect us: ex. Low oil prices result in lower cad/usd exchange rates, lower bank interest, affect exports for businesses etc. Leadership must identify need for change and be committed to implementing change: change may be required but managers may not commit to it, remember the 3c"s of management. When you commit, unfreeze the current situation (break the status quo: must justify our decisions and provide proof of the pros/cons.
