The Level 7 Diploma in Strategic Management and Leadership Online – MBA Top-Up Route (120 Credits) comprises four distinct units designed to build executive capability. The fourth unit, completing the sequence alongside Strategic Leadership Practice, Leading Strategic Change, and Developing Organisational Strategy, is Leading and Managing People at Strategic Level. This unit focuses on high-level human resource strategy, talent governance, and organisational culture rather than operational HR tasks. Learners produce a strategic workforce plan and a change impact assessment. The curriculum aligns with RQF Level 7 standards, preparing managers for the MBA top-up phase by emphasising stakeholder mapping, risk appetite, and long-term strategic direction. Assessment involves written assignments, not exams, ensuring practical application of leadership theory to complex business scenarios.
