If you're seeking a leadership role at work or wish to improve your current practices, this field is for you.
This field focuses on values-based, transformative models of leadership that produce positive outcomes for organisations and society. It explores gender and cultural issues to encourage more democratic and diverse future leadership possibilities.
Drawing on Western and non-Western wisdom theory, you'll develop an understanding of the timeless principles of leadership. Leadership theories are supplemented by individual self-assessments, practical tasks and reflection.
You'll cultivate the skills needed for leadership positions in contemporary organisations, from middle management to CEO.
