Description

Leadership is a topic that attracts a great deal of attention, with much of it being over-hyped. In this course, internationally renowned author Dr Neil Thompson presents a clear and down-to-earth introduction to what leadership is all about.

Neil has decades of experience of running effective workshops around leadership and related matters and has also provided consultancy services to a range of organizations to enable leaders at all levels to develop their knowledge, skills and confidence in making a positive difference to the people they lead.

Unfortunately, leadership is a topic that has been dealt with in highly oversimplified ways in many instances, thereby leaving leaders ill-equipped to rise to the challenges involved. This course shows an appreciation of the complexities involved and provides an important foundation of understanding for current and aspiring leaders to build on as they grow and develop over time.

If you are new to leadership or you are struggling to establish yourself as an effective leader, this course is for you. It will give you a clear picture of what leadership is all about and point you in the right direction in terms of developing your own leadership style and approach with a view to making you as effective and influential as possible.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
