General Information

Overview

Leadership and integrity extensively explores issues about how leadership practices facilitate organisational effectiveness. Understanding, analysing and applying the nature and effective practice of leadership are important for organisations to pursue sustainable development in the changing environment. In this unit you will examine a variety of traditional and more contemporary approaches to leadership, their effect on followers and when and how they should be applied. You will also consider leadership in a cross-cultural context and how different leadership styles are more accepted, or less tolerated, in different cultures. This unit builds on aspects of the emotional intelligence model that was introduced in the MBA commencement unit, MGMT 20129. You will identify the key competencies required of leaders to effectively influence followers whilst demonstrating a high degree of integrity. Using advanced reflective practice as the basis for personal development, you will be required to research, reflect on and acquire the conceptual knowledge, behavioural skills and attitudinal components of specific leadership competencies including: power and influence, self-confidence, and visibility and credibility.
