Adapt your leadership style

Macquarie studies leadership across the individual, team and organization before considering ambiguity and critical perspectives. The published outcomes ask learners to compare theories and examine when a change of style may be useful. This reflective scope is distinct from a course that presents one leadership method as universally suitable.

What you will learn

• Compare traditional and contemporary leadership theories.
• Relate leadership style to team and organizational context.
• Examine ambiguity in everyday leadership decisions.

Who this suits

Beginner-level learners; detailed prerequisites are not specified in the published course facts.

Before you enroll
