In contemporary sport environments, sport practitioners require an in-depth understanding of strategic leadership processes and practices.

Students will develop knowledge and skills in areas such as policy development and strategic planning, executive leadership and change management processes and practices.The unit content will be applied across diverse sport environments including high performance sport in not-for profit contexts and community sport with a focus on sport for development. Students will apply their strategic leadership knowledge and skills by formulating a policy or related initiative for a sport agency or organisation.
