Services now dominate the U.S. economy; therefore, it is necessary to learn and apply quality and service strategies to achieve a competitive advantage. This course focuses on the challenges of managing services in organizations that deliver pure service (banks, professional services, hotels, education, etc.) and those that use service as a differentiation strategy (manufacturers of technology, automotive, consumer packaged goods, etc.). The Internet is examined as a channel for the delivery of quality services in a cost-effective manner.
    Prerequisite(s): MBA 618  or permission of instructor.
