Lecturer Leadership and Management

*********** stands for high-quality private education. We take care of:

• Pre-university vocational business programmes (MBO4 / BTEC3),

• Bachelor’s degree in business management,

• In both full-time and part-time.

What the unit is about

The ability to lead and manage effectively is highly sought after by industry, as

employers seek to produce and develop managers who can motivate, enthuse and

build respect throughout their workforce. The hard and soft skills required by leaders

and managers are frequently highlighted by employers as skills gaps in recruitment.

Developing these skills will help students to meet career aspirations in leadership and

management.

The aim of this unit is to help students to understand the difference between the

function of a manager and the role of a leader. Students will consider the

characteristics, behaviours and traits that support effective management and

leadership. Students will learn about the theories that have shaped the understanding

of leadership and management and how these have provided a guide to action for

managers and leaders who want to secure success for their businesses. Students will

look at leadership styles, how and why they are used and the extent to which they are

effective.

This unit also gives students an understanding of motivational strategies. They will

develop motivational strategies covering intrinsic and extrinsic aspects of motivation.

Finally, students will evaluate the importance of managing performance in achieving

continuous improvement.

By the end of this unit a student will be able to:

• LO1 Examine leadership and management theories and principles, and their impact on the effectiveness of an organisation

• *** Review the influence of different leadership and management styles on the culture of organisations

• *** Develop a motivational strategy to optimise organisational performance

• LO4 Apply leadership and management approaches to managing performance to ensure continuous improvement.
