Nominations close on 3 March for the new development programme for strategic leaders at the University.

The Strategic Leaders programme is the latest leadership development programme now available through the Leadership and Management Academy. Nominations must be submitted by Friday 3 March – more information can be found on Moodle.

The Strategic Leaders programme is for those already working in a senior leadership role in the University, and are looking to further enhance their executive leadership skills.

As a leader of large teams and/or complex University-wide areas of activity, and probably reporting to a UEB member, this programme is a great opportunity to stretch leadership skills and thinking. It will support in identifying and building on current strengths as well as work on areas for development in the context of the global higher education environment which we are working in.

The programme will provide the opportunity to review the current higher education operating environment, including the cultural context, as well as national and international factors that are shaping the changing nature of the sector. Dealing with volatility, uncertainty, complexity and ambiguity are becoming ever more critical to leadership within the University so this programme will explore this, providing practical guidance in current and potentially future roles.

This programme is being launched as part of the wider Leadership and Management Academy, which has been established to develop existing and future leaders at all levels, across all job families, providing a comprehensive range of learning and development activities.

If this isn’t the programme for you, or you’re after help right now, find out about our other programmes, or access our catalogue of learning resources for leaders by visiting the LMA Hub.
