Course description

In a world defined by complexity, ambiguity and accelerating change, the need for strategic leadership has never been greater.

This course equips learners with the mindset and frameworks required to lead with foresight, integrity and impact at the strategic level. Drawing on interdisciplinary insights from organizational theory, systems thinking, and behavioural science, participants will explore how strategic leaders define purpose, make decisions under uncertainty, shape organizational cultures and align vision with execution.

Designed for professionals and lifelong learners in a continuing studies context, this 13-week course balances academic models with real-world application. Through case studies, multimedia resources, and collaborative activities, students will practice environmental scanning, develop strategic communication skills and engage with technology (generative AI). Special attention is given to ethical leadership, interest-holder influence and leading diverse, high-performance teams.

The course culminates in a personal reflective portfolio, challenging students to integrate course concepts with their lived leadership experiences.

By the end of the course, students will not only understand what it means to lead strategically, they will be better prepared to do so with confidence, creativity and conscience.
