Module content

The objective of this module is to create the opportunity for students to enhance their ability to work with others and help them reflect on their individual beliefs, attitudes, and responses to others. At the individual level the module will focus on two key areas of leadership: Managing yourself (self-awareness and understanding) and managing relationships (the impact you have on others). These two aspects involve a high level of self-awareness, the willingness to risk new behaviours, and the capacity to be flexible and make changes as the environment changes. The module is integrative and focuses on different aspects important for success.  It provides perspectives, frameworks and concepts from the different management disciplines that you have encountered during your MBA. Furthermore, it is dedicated to developing self-aware leaders who are able to effectively manage relationships and positively impact global business and society.

University of Pretoria Programme Qualification Mix (PQM) verification project
The higher education sector has undergone an extensive alignment to the Higher Education Qualification Sub-Framework (HEQF) across all institutions in South Africa. In order to comply with the HEQSF, all institutions are legally required to participate in a national initiative led by regulatory bodies such as the Department of Higher Education and Training (DHET), the Council on Higher Education (CHE), and the South African Qualifications Authority (SAQA). The University of Pretoria is presently engaged in an ongoing effort to align its qualifications and programmes with the HEQSF criteria. Current and prospective students should take note that changes to UP qualification and programme names, may occur as a result of the HEQSF initiative.
