Why this programme课程定位

Research from the front line of leadership.从领导实践前线出发的研究。

The deepest questions about leading and developing people are met by those who do it — who rarely have the framework to research them at depth.关于如何领导与培育他人,最深刻的问题,往往落在身体力行者身上——他们却少有框架去深入研究。

This doctorate gives senior practitioners the methods and supervision to turn a problem of practice into original, rigorous and defensible research.本博士为资深从业者提供方法与导师指导,把实践问题转化为原创、严谨而经得起检验的研究。

Senior leaders, managers, coaches, educators and people-development professionals who want to research a problem of practice at doctoral level.希望在博士层级研究实践问题的资深领导者、管理者、教练、教育者与人才发展专业人士。
