Examining Leadership and Management
MODULE LEARNING OUTCOMES
On successful completion of the module, you will be able to:
Critically evaluate the definition, roles and responsibilities of Leadership and Management in modern contexts
Assess alternative theoretical approaches to leadership and management and their relevance within contemporary organisations.
Discuss different methods of leadership and management development and how to implement and evaluate interventions effectively
Learning Outcomes to be assessed: 1, 2 and 3
Part 1: (Learning Outcomes 1 and 2)
Using a robust range of academic sources, critically examine the core concepts of leadership and management. In doing so, evaluate where there may be crossover between the two concepts highlighting similarities and differences.
Part 2: (Learning Outcome 3)
Present an academic rationale and construct a development plan that outlines one key leadership and one key management skill that line managers need in a contemporary business environment.
In Part 1, critically examine the concepts of leadership and management. Determine whether there is an alignment (relationship) between the two concepts or whether you believe they are simply different functioning aspects of running a business.
Evaluate the purpose and value of the two concepts in a business context.
Evaluate those two concepts against each other, not as separate issues.
