The programme is comprised of three modules. Each can be studied individually as a short course as well as together as one programme.
This course will examine the different styles of leadership and how your personal approach to leadership fits with these through psychometric tests and 1-2-1 coaching. You will discover areas for self-development as a leader, and set a path to build on your strengths through a personalised action plan.

You will gain a comprehensive and practical guide to organisational leadership, exploring the hands-on skills required to implement your leadership style and navigate organisational behaviours.
