Mapped to the CIPD Level 7 Advanced module of the same name,
Developing Skills for Business Leadership focuses on three core
areas for successful professional development and practice: managing
yourself and others, transferable managerial skills and postgraduate
study skills. Each skill is covered both conceptually and practically by
a subject area expert to help all readers analyze and critically
evaluate, manage more effectively, make sound and justifiable decisions
and lead and influence others.
Covering key concepts such as developing your professional identity,
effective management of interpersonal relationships at work, people
management and interpreting financial information, this fully updated
2nd edition of Developing Skills for Business Leadership is ideal
for all postgraduate business students taking a module in professional
development, career development or management skills. Integrating IT
skills into each chapter, it includes a new chapter on reflecting and
coaching, updated references to the CIPD's HR Profession Map, additional
coverage of stress, health and wellbeing and an enhanced international
dimension throughout the text. Online supporting resources include an
instructor's manual and lecture slides as well as additional case
studies, and sample assignments, checklists and exam guides lecturers
can use in their teaching.
