Personal Growth in Business Education

Paper Summary:

This document discusses the relevance of a Bachelor's of Business program in terms of both professional and personal development. The writer points out that undergraduate business programs provide a baseline of skills and knowledge that provide employers the assurance that future employees who are graduates of such a program are both resourceful and competent. Several courses, both general and core are examined in the context of personal development as well as their importance in the workplace in the funeral home industry specifically. Finally, some recommendations are made to further shift business school course content and delivery methodology into virtual formats.

From the Paper:

"A typical college education in any specialty or field implies a certain degree of baseline knowledge, resourcefulness, and organizational capabilities inherent in an individual's academic training who has obtained such a college education. These attributes are even more important and further developed in undergraduate business education programs because the ability of these programs' graduates to make informed and incisive decisions based on real and factual data cannot be overstated. An undergraduate business education program must impart an equal mix of factual knowledge within certain functional areas with that of the appropriate theoretical and reasoning tools requisite to conduct one's self in an informed and authoritative manner in a given industry."
