The most influential leaders are those who are capable of holding steady in the face of uncertainty and complexity, and who are equipped to deliver organisational outcomes while navigating intricate politics, systems and stakeholder relationships. Such complexity means leaders need to continuously reassess their personal skills, emotional intelligence and impact; understand how others perceive them; and recognise the different drivers that motivate those around them.
The Influential Leader microcredential focuses on leading and influencing in a dynamic, pandemic-affected world. It’s suited to those who hold a strategic leadership role with a broad span of responsibility and influence. You’ll explore a range of leadership opportunities and challenges, and learn how to most effectively connect, influence and lead – with or without formal authority – in working environments that are increasingly flexible and virtual.
Multiple offers available. See Ready to Enrol for all available dates.
