Abstract
The course “Legal Foundations of Business” provides students with context and essential concepts across a broad range of legal issues with which managers and business executives must grapple. The course provides the vocabulary necessary for business people to talk in an educated way to their customers, employees, suppliers, government officials — and to their own lawyers. It helps students improve critical thinking, communication, oral presentation, technology and ethics. Additionally it helps prepare students to meet the legal and regulatory challenges and opportunities they can expect to encounter as managers or private and public businesses. In addition, this course provides a conceptual framework for understanding the various legal tools available to managers who evaluate and pursue opportunities. The goal is not to teach students of business fields to think like lawyers but to teach them how to become more legally astute so they can confidently handle the legal aspects of management.
