Welcome to Unit 2-AB140 Again, WELCOME. You all made it to your second week. Congratulations! Are there any questions from Unit 1 you need clarification on before we begin with Unit 2? Please summarize in your own words at least one thing you learned from Unit 1. Instructor overview on Unit 1 discussion. 1

Foundations of Management Unit 2 – AB140 Key Concepts/Unit Outcomes/To-do-list tabs. Reading: Foundations of Management (pgs. 1-2). Reading: Organization as an Open System (pg. 1) and Interactive games (pg. 2). Reading: Textbook (pgs Chapter 2). Discussion: Scenario 24-hr. fitness center Assignment: Evolution of Management View the Timeline of Management Theory (pgs. 1-4) Seminar Review (20 points) 2

Unit 2 Objectives (Outcomes) Identify significant past and current management theories Describe the business organization as an open system Identify the role of internal and external environmental factors in business 3

Reminder activity for a to-do list… I have a little "memory" activity that I learned to stay on track. If, for example, I remember that my class assignment is due in 3 days--I switch my watch to the opposite wrist. Then every time I glance at my wrist, I remember, I am suppose to do my class assignment. Since, wearing my watch on the "wrong" wrist feels odd for me, I usually attend to the assignment so I can put the watch back on the correct wrist. This type of activity also helps me with other non-class "memory" reminders (instead of the string around the finger). Try it sometime. It's not as crazy as it might sound. I sometimes use a colorful rubber-band, as well. 4

KSTAICHVKOY Here is a stress reducer: The last name of a famous composer is scrambled above. Can you figure out who it is? The class music lovers will probably guess this one quickly… 5

Sewing items (next seminar)… I am soon going to send you an reminding you of a sewing “puzzle” to solve for our next Seminar. It will help you think-outside- the-box and reduce stress. Do not discuss this exercise in Discussion area, wait until next Seminar. I will also post the visual puzzle sewing items to our Document Sharing class tab next week. We will discuss your feedback in Seminar-Unit 3. Ask yourself: “Which sewing item/items in your opinion do not belong and why?” As a business student, I want you to start thinking differently. Think outside-the-box and consider alternative points of view in all things! We will discuss the answer in our third Seminar. Be prepared! The eight items pictured in the file will be: a blue thread ripper, red thread, clear hanger, white needle-threader, white zipper, yellow thimble, gray buttons, and a clear dress maker’s ruler. Have your answer ready for next Seminar! 6
