Overview

Leadership can be defined in a number of ways, but it is still an elusive concept with a variety of perspectives.

Leadership and management are two distinct concepts that are also interconnected with each other and certainly overlap in reality. Clinical leadership is a relatively new term that is constantly evolving due to technologies and the rising expectations of health services. This online micro-credential examines the concept of leadership, behavioural factors and styles that make an effective leader.

This is a non-creditable micro-credential which is awarded a digital badge and Certificate of Completion which can be shared to your social networks and displayed in your professional portfolio.

Our micro-credentials are aligned to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
