Course summary

Everything in life involves business. Think about that new top you bought last week and then think of what businesses made it possible for you to be wearing it right now? The obvious ones are the shop and the manufacturing plant, but what about the cotton growers, the label makers, the delivery company, and health and safety? And don’t forget the companies that manage the finances of all those businesses. Thinking about all those processes and people allows you to begin to understand what Business is all about.
