Why Leadership Management?
A leadership role requires the skill to manage people, teams, and situations effectively. Leadership roles can be formal or informal but knowing the difference is essential. Leaders must be able to guide organisations in specific units, departments, and projects to success by positively influencing their teams to use their abilities to achieve the best result for everyone.
If you want to aid your leadership development and move to a more senior leadership role in your career, the Diploma in Leadership and Management can help you to recognise the skills you already have and enhance them to create successful outcomes.
People in leadership roles appear to have natural charisma and influence, but these things can be taught. With the right guidance and practice, this leadership course can help you gain the skills to take teams to new heights and gain the personable characteristics of a good leader.
Learn what makes a great leader, what it takes to inspire and engage those around you, and find out the key insights into a variety of leadership theories and practices. This diploma will give you many opportunities to identify, reflect on, and build your own leadership styles and practices, enhancing your ability to make a lasting impact as a leader. Another reason for selecting this programme at IBAT Dublin is the supportive college environment, small group practical classes and the College’s reputation for being responsive to learner needs.
Career Overview
The Diploma in Leadership and Management aims to dramatically enhance your practical leadership skills, awareness, impact, and judgment. Aspiring and existing managers will gain an in-depth understanding of leadership fundamentals and graduate knowing what it takes to be a more confident, well-rounded, and inspirational leader.
Graduates will be ready for roles where they oversee entire teams for specific or more permanent projects. They will feel confident in their leadership and development skills enough to explore mentoring opportunities (guiding and advising those less senior than they are) and coaching opportunities within their current organisation or in other industries with the transferable skills they will have acquired.
Graduates can also consider more extended programmes such as a degree in leadership or associated areas such as human resources management.
Entry Requirements
Entry to this programme is based on each applicant’s own merits and work experience. No prior academic qualification or professional experience in leadership is required.
The programme is ideally suited if you have a keen interest in enhancing existing leadership qualities, becoming a leader, an openness to the principles and challenges of leadership, and a willingness to self-reflect and develop your own leadership skills and abilities.
