The Business Management and Enterprise (General) course gives students the opportunity to understand how
vital business is to individuals and society, and how it impacts on many aspects of our lives. Business has a
complex and dynamic organisational structure that requires a combination of skills, aptitude, creativity,
initiative and enterprise to operate effectively. In a constantly changing world, individuals, businesses and
nations must adapt their position in an increasingly global economy and generate the wealth to sustain
economic growth. To do this, business requires people with strategic vision who are enterprising, innovative
and creative. This course focuses on the development of these skills within the business cycle, day-to-day
running, continuing viability and expansion of a business. Exposure to a wide range of business activities,
management strategies and an understanding of enterprise, helps students to appreciate the significance of
their role as both participants and consumers in the business world.

The Business Management and Enterprise (General) course aims to prepare all students for a future where
they will need to identify possibilities and create opportunities within a business environment. This course
provides students with the ability to make sound and ethical business decisions based on critical thinking, in
line with their own and societal values.

The course equips students to proactively participate in the dynamic world of business, behave responsibly
and demonstrate integrity in business activities.
