*Management and Applications Worksheet*
Purpose
The driving question behind this activity is "How can I apply key concepts
from *Management* for success in school and my career?"
This activity can help you understand and apply key management concepts and
tools from this week's materials to identify opportunities for becoming
more efficient and effective at work while you pursue an MBA. By completing
the provided worksheet, you will gather concepts, resources, and tools for
building future assignments, and that can provide immediate benefits in
your job and relationships, including the following:
- Identify and apply course concepts for success at school, work, and
community.
- Enhance credibility and assure integrity by supporting your ideas with
research.
- Automate management of research and attributions to save time,
establish credibility, and ensure integrity of your work.
Proactive Time Management
Since many of the concepts in this course may be new or presented in a
different perspective than your experience, consider starting to work on
this early in the week. Learning has a time component; so, relying on
just-in-time management to complete the assignment and other weekly
activities might get the job done, but you may miss learning value
available through the exercise, while you risk missing deadlines designed
to keep you focused and on track.

features under the Microsoft® Word References tab to automate your
referencing.

you can apply the concept for success in your MBA program or in your
career.
1. Keep your responses brief, no more than 100 words per cell.
Build a References Cited page in APA format.

option under the References tab, and inserted citations using the
References > Insert Citation feature.
2. Place your cursor under the References heading at the end of the
worksheet.
3. Under the References heading at the end of the worksheet, select
Bibliography > References. This will automatically build your References
Cited list using the information you entered using the Manage Sources
option.
4. For the final touch, make sure you have selected Style > APA under
the References tab.
Competency Tip: The initial application of the Microsoft® Word References
tab might seem a bit confusing, but the feature will save you many hours of
work in the program by allowing you to automate the tedious attribution
process, and help you integrate research across all your courses. Once
you've entered a source under Manage Sources, that source will be available
for you to apply across all papers in the course and program. For a
