Advanced Certificates in General Management

Become a highly valued hybrid manager, with skills in both management consulting and project management. With effective management of projects comes the opportunity to maximise business performance and value, which is the primary concern of Management Consultants.

This programme will develop your decision-making skills, as well as your ability to appraise businesses and manage change. Upon completion of the programme, you will be able to lead across a wide range of business functions, including performance management, risk management, marketing, customer services, business planning and problem solving.

Combine expertise in an industry of global importance with highly sought-after management skills.

You will learn how to effectively manage projects, which in turn will help you to maximise business performance and growth – a skill for which Management Consultants are generously rewarded. Moreover, you will know how to perform these vital functions for multinationals in the essential, specialised oil and gas industry. Equipped with detailed insight into this sector, and the ability to advise companies on current industry developments, you will enjoy a lucrative career.

Gain a complete understanding of the entrepreneurial process – from idea generation and forming business plans, to raising finance and delivering innovation. You will learn about the part that technology plays in this process, including how to introduce it into organisations and how to harness it to gain an edge over the competition.

Crucially, you will also discover what makes businesses successful – and how to make the decisions that get them there. This will leave you in the ideal position to develop businesses, provide consultancy services, or even start your own business.

Develop the skills and expertise to guide organisations through these uncertain times. Planning, identifying opportunities and managing change are more important than ever – as are those individuals who are able to perform these functions.

This programme will enable you to evaluate companies through financial analysis, form appropriate strategies and then execute business change. These and other competencies will ready you for rewarding roles such as Project Director, Business Development Manager and Change Management Director.
