Overview
The MA in Leadership program is specifically designed to attract working professionals. It is structured on the basis of two intensive residency periods, followed by distance learning. This allows participants to substantially enhance their educational credentials, while minimizing absences from their workplace.
The MA in Leadership is further distinguished by balancing professional diversity and interdisciplinary study, with the need for sector specific knowledge and problem solving skills. This is accomplished by having a common curriculum for all students in the first year and an independent, work-based problem-solving project in the second year.
Curriculum content is driven through developing a sophisticated understanding of the following areas:
- Leadership
- Systems Thinking and Planning
- Learning and Teaching
- Organizations and Organizational Change
- Research and Inquiry
- Team Building
- Communication
- Character
- Ethics
- Style
- Creativity
