You will enhance your independent research and personal development skills, bolstering your capabilities in managing people and workplace processes.
Learn strategies to boost your team's productivity, navigate organisational change, and handle social and organisational complexities. You will improve your performance monitoring techniques, leverage current and emerging technologies to achieve business objectives and develop skills in business information analysis, decision-making, and effective communication.
