Hello,
My name is James. I currently work in finance in the entertainment Industry. I hope to eventually be a manager of some kind. I Hope this class will give a firmer grasp of management principles and polices. I currently live in Santa Monica, but hopefully will move to Redondo Beach shortly. I enrolled in this course as part of a certificate program with UCLA.
In my varied career, I have seen lots of management styles and personalities. They range from downright terrible to middling. I am studying management and leadership, because I strive to be an exceptional manager. I believe that most companies, my present one included, has severe deficiencies in management. Most of the people I have worked with are great individual contributors but terrible managers and my greatest hope in taking this class is ways to mitigate and improve my own personal management abilities.

For example, a good leader should not only give orders, but also listen to other team members thoughts. Another aspect a good leader should have is motivation.
