Studying it by distance
Very readable alone. Discussion adds a lot, so it is one of the subjects where a live cohort is worth something.
How it is assessed
Written examination plus a case analysis or assignment in most programmes.
Our view. Theory-heavy and easy to dismiss. It becomes useful the moment you manage people.
