Course Module

Effective strategic leadership is a catalyst for organisational success. Leaders have to be knowledgeable, creative, agile and resilient to respond to organisational need in the contemporary workplace

The aim of this unit is to equip leaders with an in-depth understanding of strategic leadership within an organisational context. Leaders will explore the complexities of the role and the theoretical perspectives, approaches, behaviours and skills which can enhance their professional practice. The unit focuses on the leader’s ability to respond creatively to complex organisational challenges and understand how to set and deliver sustainable strategic goals.

This unit is about the strategic management of data and information as an opportunity rather than a challenge. You will be assessed on your knowledge and understanding of the following learning outcomes.

The learner will:

  • Understand the strategic value of data and information
  • Understand the use of data and information
  • Critique strategies for data’s effective management
  • Improve the use of data in a strategic organisational context

Leaders must be able to navigate an organisation through strategic change. This will optimise an organisation’s ability to remain competitive, react to the needs and expectations of stakeholders and respond to changing national and international markets.

The aim of this unit is for leaders to understand the scope, context and complexity of leading strategic change. Leaders will understand how the application of analytical techniques, theories and models of change, and creative problem-solving can be used to equip them to lead strategic change with confidence. The unit culminates in giving leaders the opportunity to develop a proposal to lead a strategic change.

This unit is to enable leaders to develop an in-depth understanding of equality, diversity and inclusion at a strategic level. You will be assessed on your knowledge and understanding of the following learning outcomes.

The learner will:

  • Critically assess structural inequality within an organisational and societal context
  • Discuss approaches to comply with legal and good practice requirements
  • Appraise the influence of equality, diversity and inclusion on strategic objectives
  • Develop strategic priorities for equality, diversity and inclusion

Coaching emerges as a potent tool for learning and development, with the capability to effectively optimize individual and team performance, steering towards organizational goals. Rapidly evolving into an indispensable leadership asset, coaching empowers professional managers and leaders to provide support, motivation, and empowerment in a conversational and insightful manner. This stands in sharp contrast to, yet complements, traditional directive leadership approaches.

This unit delves into specific coaching skills, techniques, and approaches essential for leaders to foster the knowledge, skills, and resourcefulness of individuals. It emphasizes the diverse benefits and types of coaching utilized by leaders in various contexts, examining how the application of coaching influences the organizational environment. A crucial aspect of this unit involves leaders critically reflecting on their coaching abilities, identifying opportunities for improvement. To achieve this, learners must integrate coaching skills into their leadership practices.

Practicing leaders must have an understanding of the Finance function to be an effective decision maker within their role. Finance impacts on all aspects of an organisation and has a profound influence on the development and achievement of strategic objectives.

The aim of this unit is to provide leaders with an understanding of the scope, complexity and role of Finance within an organisational context. Leaders will know how to critically assess methods for analysing financial data and information required to make strategic decisions. Ultimately, the aim of this unit is to equip leaders to be more confident in their understanding of the Finance function.
