This is the loose-leaf version of Applied Sport Management Skills,
Fourth Edition With HKPropel Access, which offers students a less
expensive, printed version of the text. Applied Sport Management
Skills, Fourth Edition With HKPropel Access, takes a practical
approach for teaching students how to become strong leaders and
managers in the world of sport. Organized around the central
management functions of planning, organizing, leading, and
controlling, and addressing the Commission on Sport Management
Accreditation (COSMA) Common Professional Component topics and
North American Society for Sport Management (NASSM) guidelines, the
fourth edition has been extensively updated with hundreds of new
references and sport examples. The text employs a three-pronged
approach for teaching management theory, putting theories into
practice, and developing students’ management skills. Timely
discussions and case studies address the impacts of COVID-19; Black
Lives Matter initiatives; name, image, and likeness rules; women in
executive positions; corporate social responsibility; data
analytics; and more. While other texts focus on learning about
sport management, Applied Sport Management Skills enables students
to apply the principles while developing the skills to become
effective sport managers. Interactive online learning tools
available through HKPropel complement activities found in each
chapter: Flash-card activities help students learn key terms.
Self-assessments, which ask students to identify their strengths
and weaknesses and plan to improve shortcomings, are now
assignable, trackable, and automatically scored. Applying the
Concepts quizzes, which challenge students to identify management
concepts illustrated in various situations, are now trackable and
automatically scored. Time-Out features, in which students apply
management concepts to their personal sport and work experiences,
are now assignable instructor-scored assessments. Case studies are
now supplemented by 10-question automatically scored quizzes and
include three open-ended discussion questions. Additional
assignments available in downloadable documents for students to
complete and submit to the instructor further facilitate the
application of the concepts presented in the text: Sport Management
Professionals @ Work activities provide a cohesive thread to keep
students focused on how sport managers use the concepts on the job.
Skill-Builder Exercises present real-world scenarios designed to
help future managers handle day-to-day situations such as setting
priorities, conducting job interviews, handling conflict, and
coaching employees. Sports and Social Media Exercises introduce
students to the role of social media in managing sport
organizations. Students review popular social media sites such as
Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn and visit sport websites. Game Plan
for Starting a Sport Business features ask students to perform
managerial tasks such as developing an organization structure and
brainstorming ideas for leading employees. With Applied Sport
Management Skills, students will be primed for an exciting career
in sport management by gaining a thorough understanding of
management theories and developing the acumen to apply them. Note:
