Module 2 overview on Influencing the Culture of Organisations

Influencing the culture of an organisation requires more than just an understanding and intertwining of ethical theory into your values and self-identity; it needs Leadership and Emotional Intelligence (EI) at all levels to help it live and breathe it on a daily basis. This module expands on the leadership and EI aspect of being an ethical leader helping you understand the different styles of leadership and altruistic aspects of transformational leadership when applied authentically, thus helping you intertwine your newly attained ethical theory and beliefs with the leadership styles. As you read through the articles, you will gain an understanding of what attributes make an ethical leader, and through a self-reflection/self-development exercises, be able to articulate how you will aspire to uphold their ethical leadership on a daily basis. The articles and interactive assignments will also start to give you an understanding of corporate social responsibility (CSR) and the gaps that currently exist in organisations, thus equipping you with the capability to potentially create and implement programs that have the ability to influence the culture of your organisation. On successful completion of this module, you will be awarded 30 hours CPD.
