The assessment of the module will consist of two assignments: an individual exercise and research paper (60%), as well as a group assignment addressing an organizational leadership dilemma (40%) - see details below. Module Learning Outcomes (MLOs) At the end of the module you will be able to: 1. Critically evaluate responsible leadership theories 2. Evaluate own leadership style using the developed informal leadership theory 3. Creatively initiate, lead and drive leadership responses to sustainable issues 4.

Assessment Brief Postgraduate Page 2 of 8 Assessment A Individual Assignment (60% of total marks), total word count: max. 3,200 words Assessment A consists of two parts, to be completed in the first half of the course. Part 1: Creating a Personal Leadership Portrait, max. of 1,200 words (30% of Assessment A). MLO 2 As a leader, it is important for you to share information about yourself with your team. Communicating your philosophy on leadership, as well as your purpose, values, and expectations is a great way to build authentic relationships with your staff. In this exercise you will be required to c reate a Personal Leadership Portrait. You need to reflect on your personal leadership portrait by answering these questions: Cognitive: How do I know that I matter? How do I know that I am a leader? Intrapersonal: Who am I as a leader? How do my identities and values shape what leadership means to me? Interpersonal: Who are we (identity groups) as demographic groups? What relationships do I want to foster with others similar to and different from myself through leadership? Part 2: Own theoretical framework of leadership in 2,000 words (70% of Assessment A). MLO 1 and 2 Employing a critical analysis of leadership assumptions and theories, you will develop your own informal theory of leadership that addresses the current trends of society. You will be expected to offer a conceptual framework which relates leadership development to theories of leadership, particularly in the context of responsible and sustainable development. This assignment invites you to revisit the theories and debates we have covered in this module. This is a research report and in comparison to Part 1 it requires academic references, in-text citations, and a reference list at the end. You will also be evaluated on your systematic reasoning and your innovative application of literature. You are limited to a word count of 2,000 words, excluding references, headings and appendices. You will need to: Critically self-reflect on your own leadership capabilities and craft a framework that you can use to guide your own practice of leadership. Develop your own unique theoretical framework and give it a title. Use visual representation to clarify and elaborate on your framework. Marking Rubric on next page

Assessment Brief Postgraduate Page 4 of 8 Assessment B - Group assignment: Leadership Dilemma in 2,500 words (40% of total marks) MLO 3 and 4 In this assignment, you will work in a group of no more than 3 students to solve a real-life or fictional business and leadership dilemma. You are asked to identify a leadership dilemma of your choice, which can be sourced from the literature, media reports, your own work experience, or a fictional scenario that illustrates a real-world issue. This assignment is to be completed during the last 2 weeks of the course. For example, the Dutch restaurant chain “The Avocado Show” has the stated aim to promote more healthy and sustainable food by featuring avocado prominently on their menu, and by offering less meat and more vegetarian dishes in their restaurants. However, avocadoes do not grow in the Central European temperate climate and need to be imported from tropical and subtropical regions where commercial avocado farming has been linked to unsustainable land practices, water shortages for the local population and environment, and environmental degradation. To offer truly sustainable food, restaurants need to consider their entire supply chain, not just the type of produce that are offered on the menu. For your chosen leadership dilemma, imagine yourselves as a group of consultants, and provide an analysis of the leadership dilemma and recommendations for a solution by including and considering the following aspects: Describe the dilemma (5%) Present rationality for change (15%) Propose potential solutions and justification (20%) Discuss ethics, CSR and other issues (20%) Map out implementation (10%) Structure, APA referencing (10%) Peer Assessment (20%) Your analysis should consider the following, but not limited to, the accurate and creative application of theories of leadership and responsible change management, global sustainability, cultural awareness and any further discussions that have been covered in the module. You will be assessed individually by the course facilitator and peers in your group (please see the peer assessment model, below).
