Strategic Management & Leadership

What is Strategic Management & Leadership?

Strategic Management and Leadership are two of the most key concepts for any successful business or organisation. Aspects of Strategic Management involve planning, implementation and monitoring of long-term goals, ambitions, and objectives of the business. Covering all the analysis of the internal and external environment that the organisation operates within, looking for the strengths and weaknesses, and developing or adjusting strategies based on ever changing business environments.

Leadership specifically refers to the ability to influence and guide others towards achieving such common goals. This can include inspiring, motivating and empowering colleagues or employees to achieve their, and by extension the organisation’s, potential.

Both skills are essential for managers and executives in order to make informed decisions, inspire employees and drive organisational growth.

Guy, thanks again, please pass on my gratitude to your other tutors, particularly Kat. I definitely made the right choice with Minerva. I will continue to recommend Minerva and this route to others. I now feel accustomed to it and ready start the MBA itself.

Nicki Roberts

Managing Director, Kinetic Six Ltd

Re-entering an academic training environment was a daunting prospect after several years decades away from it! In hindsight there really was no need whatsoever for concern, the Minerva Team are small and perfectly formed, from my initial (somewhat nervous) first contact through to finishing the qualification they were always there to support me every step of the way.

Tom Sims

2019 Level 7 Graduate

Anyone considering gaining further education qualifications whether currently serving or ex military, I highly recommend Minerva Elite. From beginning to end you’re fully supported by a great team and you will get first class guidance and feedback from start to finish. Mils, Guy and Kat have helped me achieve a huge amount in such a short period of time.

Eifion Roberts

I joined Minerva Elite Performance to do the Official (ISC)² Certified in Cybersecurity (CC) Self-Paced Training course which I fully enjoyed. Throughout the course, don’t get me wrong, I had many times when I was scratching my head, going through the Chapters, which was very daunting at times after being out of training for a number of years and especially when you a learning something new.

Molly Lewin

Paramedic

The Award in Education & Training course enabled me to expand my teaching knowledge further. The primary aim of doing this course was to allow me to gain the qualification to deliver medical courses to the public & pass on knowledge that I have gained as a paramedic. It was very organised, with interactive, engaging sessions & tutor support throughout. The course was mostly run online, which enabled me to work from home & fit it around life commitments.
