Abstract:

Applied Sport Management Skills uses the four management functions of planning, organizing, leading, and controlling to teach readers how to become strong leaders and managers in the world of sport. This book, along with its companion Web site and online student resource, provides a comprehensive overview of management topics with a unique focus on developing the necessary skills for managing sport organizations. The text's how-to approach helps students learn by putting into practice what they will be doing as sport managers--including creative problem solving, strategic planning, and developing the skills to lead, organize, and delegate. By taking principles and concepts presented in the text and applying them to professional practice, students will be able to assess how their interests and skills can contribute to the growing sport management field. Applied Sport Management Skills provides readers with a thorough understanding of the management principles and concepts used in sport organizations and the challenges that managers face. This understanding is enhanced by the application of that knowledge and by the focus on developing management skills, allowing students to build a solid foundation toward a fulfilling career in sport management.
