In this paper, I will outline how the Quantitative Reasoning for Business (QRB) could better prepare me in a career the field such as; Economics, Finance, Accounting, and Operation Research Statistics. The QRB course focuses mainly on decision-making, economic effectiveness, mathematical models, among others.
After reviewing the QRB model, I realize that the course plays a major role in preparing me for the business field. As a MBA student embarking on getting a management position, getting the head start with the QRB course will give me the basic knowledge to relate, transform, and execute, information appropriately. Furthermore, taking this course will give me the necessary techniques such as, how to queuing theory, breakdown analysis, and situations, as it directly applied to managerial situations. The matrix summary was very informative; since, it highlights, identifies, describes, foremost, and provides vital information that can better prepare me for the management field. Furthermore, the tutorials in week four course material was very useful, because it gives me a full insight of what goes on in a real working environment, what to expect, how to handle challenges and opportunities, and most of all; the major impact on management theory.
Emerging in today’s diverse work place it is very important to understand the basic fundamental aspects, of how to distribute and allocate business resources efficiently and effectively. Therefore, understanding the importance of mathematics to solve business problems is very vital. Additionally, being mathematical incline can provide an effective mechanism for evaluation and control, a business financial aspect.
Managerial jobs vary because of environmental differences, variation in dependence, technology, and complexity. Therefore, working in an economic field would require a person with strong mathematical skills. As a manager you are require to do research and construct graphs, demonstrating important economic factors for the business as it pertains to the general economic growth, inflation, interest rates, and unemployment. In the financial and accounting world, possessing high level of mathematical skills is generally required. Working in these areas demands full control of financial recourses as they flow into the business. Therefore, mathematics skills are needed to establish budgets, which are expresses in financial terms, or quantified factors. Furthermore, doing operation research statistics would need persons that can identify problems and independency variables to define business strategy.
Finally, with these topics I have determined that this course is vital in today’s economic world. Thus, learning the skills outline in the QRB course has provided me with an abundance of decision-making tools and techniques and has increased my understanding of overall organizational process.
