We are looking to provide a new Masters award "The MSc Complexity and Leadership Programme" which will comprise of the following awards;
o MSc Complexity and Leadership
o MSc Complexity and Leadership (Manufacturing)
o MSc Complexity and Leadership (Public Service)
o MSc Complexity and Leadership (Service)
This MSc Complexity and Leadership Programme aims to introduce current practitioners to concepts and thinking concerned with the sustainable leadership of organisations in both public services and manaufacturing. The speed of change and the associated complexity facing organisations in the late 20th and early 21st Centuries has meant that leaders are increasingly having to develop thinking and solutions which would have been considered unthinkable a few years before. In other words leaders have more than ever before to come up with creative ideas that can be developed into successful innovations provided by advanced organisations. While clearly this imperative can be related to new products and services, a crucial dimension is the harnessing of the creative abilities of employees such that the tacit knowledge they possess can be utilized to best affect. The challenge is then to develop strategies, structures, systems and cultures/climates which enable organisations to succeed in achieving (their) interpretation of organisational ‘effectiveness’ and ‘competitive advantage’.
We want to take ideas, your ideas about this programme. Do you agree? Should it be in-company or at Glamorgan?
Let us know...
