Summary
Are you currently working in business and looking to enhance your knowledge and skills? Or, do you have a non-business degree and little or no previous business background, but would like to gain this? Available to study full time or part time, this MSc in International Management and Leadership will provide you with the skills you need to become a successful business leader in our fast-changing, global economy.
The contemporary business world faces several challenges, including recruitment, export/import issues, commodities pricing, complex market conditions, data noise, the emergence of AI, and productivity, to name but a few. How does a modern leader research, analyse, extrapolate, and synthesise data around these issues to manage, shape and lead modern businesses? How do we manage and lead people within industry settings? How can we ensure we understand the contemporary business landscape so that it informs our confident decision-making?
This course addresses those questions and helps you to kick-start a successful career.

-
learn key management principles and refine your critical insight, preparing you to become a successful business leader in our fast-changing, global economy;
