Programmes
The Centre for Leadership Studies runs a portfolio of leadership development programmes, each of which are designed to meet the needs of different people at different stages in their careers.
We have a growing portfolio of modules designed for undergraduates who wish to develop their leadership capabilities and team working skills. Employers increasingly expect graduates to be skilled in these areas, so Exeter students are well placed to benefit from the expertise within CLS.
For more experienced managers who are looking to improve their practice we offer a variety of postgraduate study options including a part-time Masters (MA) in Leadership Studies and a leadership specialism on the Exeter MBA. Our Executive Education portfolio is also designed for experienced managers who might wish to develop their leadership capability via our short courses, the international Advanced Leadership Programme or the prestigious IoD Company Direction programme.
We also run programmes designed for people who want to undertake research training leading to a PhD . These include a part-time Masters (MRes) and a full time Masters (MSc) both of which prepare candidates for the MPhil/PhD in Leadership Studies.
Each of these programmes encourages you to reflect on the practice of this curious, simple yet complex thing that continues to challenge the most experienced and able people of our time - leadership!
