Through a short concentrated period of study you will rapidly delve into a subject area and develop projects to apply directly to your organisation.
This Postgraduate Award provides a robust theoretical understanding of how to become an executive leader, and practical tools to support the development of your future leadership brand. The PGA considers the development of effective executive leadership to be an on-going process that requires many abilities including awareness, flexibility, reflection, resilience, hard work, and the courage to grow, to name a few.
You will be encouraged to take a step back to think about your leadership identity and style and challenge your thoughts to gain a greater understanding of what constitutes effective executive leadership, particularly during turbulent times, and how you can work to become such a leader as you progress in your responsibilities and leadership capabilities.
As a participant on the Developing Executive Leadership Postgraduate Award, you will receive three high level 1-2-1 Executive coaching sessions during your time on the programme. As a Senior Leader, if you are already receiving Executive Coaching, we will liaise with your Coach to complement the existing sessions you are receiving
This Postgraduate Award will run across four days of face-to-face teaching at our London base in The Shard, with a six week window to complete your assignments.
To consolidate your learning, you will complete two assignments that typically include a mix of direct essay questions and reflective work in which you analyse a leadership challenge. You will explore the application of leadership theory to evaluate the challenge and then identify solutions.
"This Postgraduate Award is specifically created to provoke a rethink about your future leadership brand and how to maximise your influence particularly during turbulent times."
