Why take Introduction to Business with Dr. Hohn? Because this course is designed not only to introduce you to key business principles but to do so in a way that aligns with your unique strengths and personal goals. Here’s what sets this class apart:

• Strengths-Centered Learning: We’ll use a strengths-based approach, allowing you to discover, leverage, and apply your unique talents in a business context. You’ll see how the very traits that make you unique can also be assets in the professional world.

• Real-World Application: With my extensive background in product design, marketing, training, and development, I bring insights from the field directly into the classroom. You’ll learn not only the theory but also how these concepts play out in real-life scenarios—skills that will be useful long after the class ends.

• Flexible and Balanced Format: As a hybrid course, you get the best of both worlds—engaging, face-to-face discussions on Thursdays at Rock Creek and the convenience of online learning. This structure allows us to cover topics in-depth while offering you flexibility.

• Goal-Oriented Skill Development: This course is designed to help you achieve your own goals, whether you're interested in entrepreneurship, management, or another aspect of business. We’ll work to connect your strengths and career aspirations to make this learning experience relevant and applicable to your future.

• Supportive, Empowering Environment: You’ll experience an inclusive, strengths-focused classroom where your contributions are valued, and your questions are encouraged. Expect a positive, growth-oriented space that emphasizes what you do well and how you can build on it.

Together, let’s make this Introduction to Business a truly empowering experience. Plus, the required textbook, Exploring Business by Karen Collins, is affordable at under $40 and includes free homework access. I look forward to supporting your growth and seeing how you’ll apply what you learn!

A bit about me – I’m Dr. Michael Hohn, and I approach teaching from a strengths-based perspective. I focus on recognizing and nurturing what you do best, fostering a positive and supportive environment where you can build confidence and self-awareness. I value each student's uniqueness and believe that everyone brings something special to the table, which creates a classroom atmosphere of inclusion and respect.

No special technology is needed for this class. I use MS Word and ask that you have access to Adobe Reader for PDFs.
