Aims |
|
This module aims to provide students with a marketing toolkit which they can critically evaluate and be able to apply, where appropriate to their own business context. Students will be able to understand the challenges and opportunities arising from the macro environment. They will learn concepts, techniques, frameworks which can be applied to develop effective marketing strategies and to use these reflectively and as appropriate to different market contexts. Learning embodies Kolb’s experiential learning principles and will draw on their own experiences as well as examples of best practice from other sectors to help them to contribute to business and societal marketing goals |
