Introduction
Today’s global business environment is disruptive and dynamic, posing a range of leadership challenges for organisations. You develop the knowledge and skills required of business leaders within the complexities of the fourth industrial revolution. You become a research-informed business leader who is able to apply best practices within your organisation and in your own managerial practices. The interaction between theory and practice provides you with a range of perspectives that add value in terms of business effectiveness, efficiency and capability. You reflect upon your own personal skills and engage in dialogue with global peers, to challenge your assumptions and transform your professional practice.
Working autonomously, but with support from your supervisory team, you build on previous knowledge and experience, gaining the confidence in academic research to undertake the doctoral-level study. You select a research topic aligned with your personal and professional objectives. Examples of previous research include studies of commitment to personal development, changes in public sector organisations, and the impact of organisational culture on efficiency.
