Employer Expectations
Most employers will expect you to already have at least some understanding of leadership and management upon promotion.
This is defined as the skills and attributes that complement your technical expertise and subject knowledge — things that make great managers and leaders what they are, skills such as communication, problem-solving, and critical thinking.
Twelve Weeks
Over twelve weeks, the Leadership & Management Programme immerses students in understanding the dynamic role of management; you will broaden your horizons by covering an intense curriculum and explore how decisions are made, how change happens and how to get the best performance from the people who look to you for leadership.
At the end of this programme you will have learnt how to lead change, think critically, use power and authority responsibly and you will have developed greater and more mature confidence in your leadership and management skills.

- develop the self-belief you can be a leader
