CLEARLAKE >> For the spring semester, Yuba College Clear Lake Campus will be offering a course entitled Principles of Management. This course will focus on the role, functions, and responsibilities of management in a contemporary organization.
The course will be taught by Steve Wylie, who joined the Clear Lake Campus as Director of Campus Operations in August. Wylie has served in numerous management roles over the past 25 years at both small and large corporations, including Berkeley Systems, WordStar International, Wells Fargo, and Target Corporation. More recently, he was Chief Information Officer and Director of E-commerce for BareBones WorkWear, a local retailer in Sacramento.
He earned his bachelor’s degree from Alma College (Michigan) and his master’s degree in Business Administration from the University of Phoenix San Francisco campus.
Wylie has been a mentor to many of his employees, and is eager to share his knowledge and experience with Lake County professionals and students. Discussing the course, he stated, “Whether you plan to be a manager or just work for one, the principles of management will make you a better employee and enhance your career.”
“We’re excited to offer this class,” Counselor Pamela Bordisso added. “Not only it is an excellent professional opportunity, but the course fulfills requirements for certificates and degrees in General Business Management, Personnel Management, Retail Management, and Small Business Management. We look forward to working with our business community and increasing opportunities for our local population.”
