Research undertaken by Richard Boyatzis and Daniel Goleman of the Emotional Intelligence Consortium has clearly identified that superior performing managers and leaders use a variety of leadership and managerial competencies and engage in reflective practice to identify developmental needs. In this unit you will examine the range of competencies required of managers and leaders and how these may change based on different positions, roles and organisational context. You will establish your own level of competence and personal development needs though increased self awareness based on reflective practice and diagnostic instruments. You will explore the specific aspects of professional practice as they relate to leading people, teams and organisations and how this impacts on your career choices.
