Topics:
Many students would like to be a manager someday. What kind of a leader would you be (Autocratic, Participative, Free-Rein)? Do you have evidence to support your choice?
Now that you have learned some of the basic principles of organization, please explain what problems you see emerging when an organization gets larger? Please provide an example of a real-life company that has run into problems as they have tried to become larger.
Workers on the manufacturing floor are being replaced by robots and other machines. On the one hand, this lets companies compete with cheap labor from other countries. On the other hand, automation eliminates jobs. Are you concerned that automation may increase unemployment or underemployment in the United States and around the world? Why or why not?
