Lead people and transformations without pausing your career
Leadership is a practice that can be studied, coached and improved. This MSc focuses on the science and craft of leading people and change: self-leadership, team effectiveness, power and influence, organisational design and ethical judgment. Unlike an MBA, the programme does not centre finance and markets as primary disciplines; instead it develops durable leadership capacity applicable in any sector. The capstone requires you to design and (where possible) lead a real change initiative with measured results.
Ideal for engineers, educators, clinicians and public servants stepping into leadership, and for managers who want rigorous leadership development without a full general management MBA.
Interactive modules, weekly readings, recorded lectures, and collaborative discussions with peers worldwide.
Module assignments, online proctored examinations, and capstone projects evaluated under UK quality standards.
The published duration is 18 months. Teaching language: English. Actual time-to-complete depends on mode and any recognised prior learning.
