    DECISIONJust like a driver who wants to reach a destination, the manager of an SME applies her skills and knowledge for her business to reach its goals. Understanding the distinction between management and business is important for the discussion of the knowledge and skills required to make rational decisions concerning the “business” of an SME.

    This module illustates the kinds of resource decisions that managers make, the competencies that are needed and consequences in case of mistakes.
