University-Level Prospectus | BA HONS DEGREES
BA (Hons) PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT (BUSINESS AND MANAGEMENT)
HEB015/BMX1 AWARDING BODY: UNIVERSITY OF PLYMOUTH
2 YEARS, PART-TIME
The BA (Hons) in Professional Development (Business and Management) is one of only a handful of programmes across the country that draws on the latest theories, methods and practices to develop your leadership style.
We will provide a space for you to learn from your emotional, intuitive and logical experiences of work. Many organisations focus only on the rational/logical, leaving no space for emotion or intuition. This can lead to poorer quality of health, unmotivated staff, and poorer quality. We also explore the success of ‘next stage’ organisations to unveil the human potential at work.
Leadership is a practice, and as such, can be learnt and developed over time. This programme is designed to introduce you to the latest tools and techniques to make an impact now, and develop an effective approach to your continued professional development. In particular, it will help you explore a range of perspectives on the nature of leadership and organisations. It will help you reflect on your current views of leadership and organisations and how these relate to your own lived experience; it will encourage you to slow down and attend to your lived experience of being in organisations long enough for new ways of making sense of your experience to emerge.
