MSc Business Strategy, Leadership and Change

The MSc in Business Strategy, Leadership, and Change is intended to increase students' knowledge and understanding of designing and monitoring corporate strategies, developing change programs, and understanding the influence of various leadership styles in certain circumstances. This knowledge and abilities will help students develop personally, making them more effective if and when they take on managerial roles.
The programme consists of five core courses: one on research methodologies and four on strategy, all of which are intended to be relevant to senior and middle managers, high-potential junior managers, management consultants, entrepreneurs, and directors of small and medium-sized businesses.
Furthermore, the degree is designed for non-specialists who want to pursue a general business/management career with a focus on business strategy. There are additional chances to study three optional strategy-oriented courses (from a list of four), allowing participants to tailor the curriculum to their specific requirements and interests. The curriculum will be finished with a dissertation that will take a strategic approach. This viewpoint should highlight one or more of the program's core subject themes: corporate strategy, leadership, and change.
The MSc in Business Strategy, Leadership, and Change is intended to provide the next generation of organisational managers with skills in business strategy, strategic change, leadership, systems thinking and analysis, project management, business economics, demand and inventory planning, and quality management and engineering.
The program's comprehensive approach to managing a company will provide participants with valuable managerial and organisational insights. Furthermore, the curriculum intends to create a critical awareness of the disciplines involved by investigating the nature of strategic thinking, as well as the role and function of leadership in strategy creation, execution and change.
