He tells you in lecture what will be on the test. Go to class, or get the notes from someone who does.

hah a...i don't know about mr. hottie like everyone is saying. here is what I will say, he tries hard to make the class good, he has the strucuture of it laid out clearly, he is nice, and the subject material was interesting to me, so for all of that I say that he is good.

Tim is a stud muffin! The class is easy. Read the chapters and learning objectives a day before the test and got an A.

Nice, funny guy. Class was interesting and entertaining and funny stories and examples helps you to remember the topics...and I agree...he's not bad looking either ;)

pretty easy class, good teacher and fun at same time

easy class, either go and get the notes or get the notes from someone else, good class to take with a couple of buddies so you only have to go once a month

Awesome teacher. Celebrity status and charsimatic power has many who snipe cheap shots at his character. They wither, he weathers. And yes, it is getting hot in here...

Someone finally understands how to make learning easy and fun, 4 years of college taught in 1 class. You have to study for the exams. If you don't, you'll get a C.

Easy class, he gives you the test questions while you are learning the subject material. He tells you what parts of the textbook you have to read, which ends up being maybe 5 paragraphs for the entire semester. Go to class, fill in the blank notes, easy extra credit, lots of movies, fun class, lots of laughing.

All of the test questions are multilpe choice and are straight from notes and class examples. There are also a few questions from the book but he tells you in the learning objectives exactly what to read in the book. This class can be an easy A if you get all the notes.

I had Professor Waid for MGMT 4340 and MGMT 3000. His style of teaching is solid because he's intelligent and has the ability to analyze scenarios. However, even more important is that he's funny and caring while he challenges you to develop into a better person intellectually and spiritually. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Good class. Go to class and take notes as you listen (don't just write down PowerPoint bullets!). Yes, the exams are hard/confusing IF you rely on notes from Grade Genie, etc., or a past semester. Just hope that other fools (like the reviewer below) are using these notes - you will easily finish at the top of the distribution curve.

it's an A class with minimum effort...

It's an easy course and he's very engaging. Definitely on the eccentric side. Funny. Worth taking. Don't get scared if it's your first business course. Only 3 exams though, and they can be tricky.

The class is super easy if you study the learning objectives before the test. Prof Waid is easy going and very good at presenting the material and examples.

Very charismatic, enjoyable lecturer. Tests could be tough, but that was my only real complaint

Professor Waid expects big things in the future for his students. He runs class discussions that involve everyone. Everything that he brings to class is well prepared and will get students thinking about the world. Highly recommend, definitely my favorite professor in the B School

This class is straight memorization. Prof. Waid will rattle off about 10-15 different lists of information during every class. The exam study guides after you fill them out end up being at least 20 pages long and you are expected to memorize every last bit of it. Exams were rough and he is a little full of himself. Did NOT enjoy this class at all!

This might be a hard class if you didn't go to class. Be prepared to memorize a lot. He does give study guide and DO FOLLOW IT WELL! He is good in explaining the materials. Be a good student and he will actually treat you very well. I lacked of 3 points to reach the cut-off point to get an A but he gave me an A as the final grade instead of A-.

I don't know how he used to do it but there was no study guides and the class averages have been around a D. You have to go to class and study relentlessly though he puts questions on the test that he doesn't cover. Speaks clearly and easy to understand. He's lazy and makes TA's do everything including answering all questions general or exam

Take this class in the summer! He uses a completely different book. No papers, easy homework, and tests straight from the book. 10x easier than during the regular fall or spring semester!!

His lectures are very interesting and engaging. not much to write down from the powerpoints. but his tests are a terrible. it will be over insane details from the texts that are hard to catch and he's perfectly content letting his class average be Cs and Ds. sitting in lecture it seems easy but dont be fooled

Classes are lecture only, note taking is easy because of the packet. Tests are HARD and nitpickey. Waid is content with the class averaging D's on tests. Fairly interesting class and guy overall, though.

In general, Tim wants to increase your understanding of management and he does do a good job, but his tests are very hard. Reading the book isn't necessary if you're OK with a B, but going to class is essential.

This class was very interesting. The exams are a bit hard, but if you go to class everyday, and read the book, then you are sure to get an A or B. If you study last minute and don't read the book, then you will definitely get a C or lower. Overall though, I learned a lot and the class was very good! Waid is a pretty good professor.

This class doesn't require much of your time. There is no homework, or outside class assignments. That being said, the tests are tricky because they are designed to trip up the lazy students. Memorize the assigned reading sections and attend and pay attention every class and you'll do fine.

This class is ridiculously easy. IF you show up to class and take the notes and read the chapters before the test. If you do those two things, it's an easy A and doesn't take much effort at all.

I never want to leave. He has a dry sense of humor, but it's there, and it's hilarious. He is so easy to listen to and makes class enjoyable. He knows his stuff, too, which is very respectable.

He rewards merit. Good students who apply themselves do well. I learned (vs. got a grade) so many organizational dynamics and I felt that I matured immensely as an individual. I think the lazy, immature students disliked the class but that is the nature of our insolent Millennial peers.

He's a really good teacher who knows the subjects he teaches very well. He has a lot of real world experience which makes him very credible. His tests aren't easy so attendance and studying are musts. He's very in love with himself and loves to hear himself talk, but at least he's entertaining about it.

Overall, Waid is a good teacher and a good guy. He can be annoying sometimes with how much he loves himself but at the end of the day, he knows his stuff and is always willing to help his students as long as you approach him about it.

Tim Waid is a balla. His lectures are always interesting and inclusive, but expect to be interrupted before you finish talking. Haircut could use an update, but bowtie is on point. Tests are very hard, but manageable.

Take this class online. As long as you read the chapter while doing homework and quizzes (both open book) you'll be fine. Then watch the lectures right before the test and focus on the extra stuff he adds in. Get the lessons done before they're due and use those to get your grade up. Do the extra credit, it takes 10 minutes and is an easy 2 pts.

Dude is crazy, but he does love his topic. Study the reading quizzes, attempt to go to class some and you will be fine.

weird but solid teacher.

Go to lectures to get notes for test. 1/3 in class notes, 1/3 book questions, and 1/3 slides

He knows his stuff and has good lectures, he doesn't put you to sleep and is very enthusiastic. His test are hard if you don't study alot, but if you do then you shouldn't really worry about this class. Go to class, otherwise you are going to do bad.

Tim was an okay professor. He was passionate about the topic, but he's monotone, so I didn't pay attention in class. If you attend class, there's a possibility for extra credit points, but not attending class won't hurt you. I never read the textbook, but I still got C+ on all three exams. He curved the final grades. I went from a C to an A-.

I took the Honor's version. Tim has a very difficult personality, but he will truly appreciate intellectual capital if you go the extra mile. In Honor's everything is interactive and has extra essays (2 pages). He comes off rough, but if you work with him he will do anything he can to connect you to important people (med school admission person)

I really like Tim Waid. I had him for Management 3000, and took his Crisis Management class this semester. YES, you have to go to class. YES, you have to participate. But he makes class discussion comfortable and interesting. He grades fairly, and motivates his students to be prepared for class. I highly recommend 4340, great class!

Great classroom passion and interactive style. Engaging. Pay attention, take notes, you will do well. Rewards you for your effort with challenging exams that help those who prepare well.

Exams are challenging but they help those who are hard working. Jokers beware - you will do poorly if you do not study. Good classroom topics and discussions. Very energetic professor. Cares about student development. Great teacher.

I learned quite a bit. I used the information from class discussion in my job interviews so that I spoke "the language" of business. Waid has engaging/rhetorical question style that makes your think/learn. I care about grades so I studied a lot, especially for exams. But I also wanted to learn so class mattered to me. Good class.

Enjoyed the class. Very organized discussions and assignments and test questions. You do well if you follow the standard: attend class, study a little bit often, and prepare well for those exams that carry weight. I just like classes that reward those who step up but I know my friend who slacked a lot did not do well.

Discussions (not lectures) with students helped advance my understanding of the language of business. I feel that I have a better awareness of what my future expectations will become. I was alarmed to discover employers/the real world view college students as unprepared in critical thinking and communication. I left my smartphone in the car !

I did not go to class or study much but I figured out how to earn a C minus by doing very little. Kind of close though cuz i had to make an A on the last exam to save myself from a D. I was graduating and had a job so I did not want to try hard.

I am an Accounting major and have done 2 internships. My grades are critical to staying in my program and I worked very hard for an A +. It helped to be disciplined and attend class and study well for homework, quizzes, and especially tests. We had a study group. I recommend the class if you are preparing for an internship since Waid keeps it real.

I liked the topic and conversational style. Lots of current events and examples to discuss interactively with students. I got extra credit for doing in-class exercises and sharing. I learned some useful things. I liked the routine and clear grading guidelines that made me work harder for my B+. I am not good at exams so I did not get an A.

I am not a business student but I loved this class (mgmt 3000) solely due to the fact that I learned A LOT. I had to work hard and study a lot from this class but I thought everything I was learning was interesting. Tim Waid is a nutty professor but I respected the guy because of how passionate he is. You can tell he wants his students to learn.

Structured course with clear weekly assignments. Extra credit papers were abundant. Enjoyed standards of expectation established and was motivated to be scholarly in learning. Good course with flexibility on completing work. Study extra hard for exams and/or do not relay on eBook for quizzes (know it vs. know where find it - the typical cop out!)

Very organized and clear structure. Good topics for someone looking to improve themselves or others. I felt like I put a lot into the class and got a lot out of it and the professor facilitated both my wants and needs. Good class.

I really like the schedule of activities and assignments - class note-taking, online homework (use an open book for answers). I learned new ideas about the world after college (jobs, life). The exams are half the points and will reward you if you prepare. I like challenges and so getting a B+ was rewarding to me. I understand myself more too.

The professor is easy to talk to and gives plenty of examples and stories to learn from. I liked the large lecture interaction and participation. I learned a lot about topics from what my classmates had to say. Learning and class was fun. Good experience.

Dr. Waid's a great teacher. He makes the lectures interesting and engaging, and he's easy to understand. There's tons of extra credit in the class and plenty of homework for cushion in case you bomb an exam (which btw those aren't very hard). I highly recommend.

Very organized class with a LOT of extra credit. Attendance isn't required but if you show up, you get extra credit. His exams are fair and he is laid back.

So many people complain about Tim Waid but he was one of the best teachers I have ever had at Mizzou. He actually teaches concepts that you remember. He gives a ton of extra credit if you talk and engage with him. People who complain about him are the same people who want a degree, not knowledge. Don't let the comments scare you, he is awesome!!

Professor Waid likes to create visualizations for students. In this class there can be a lot of assignments due, but the duration and difficulty of those assignments are not major. He also gives extra credit for those willing to speak in large classroom settings. Those who have failed this class did not show up or try at all. Simple as that.
