This module aims to provide students with a broad overview of the core competencies required to lead the complex organisational structures involved in global events management and to develop ethical values such as responsible management, sustainability and inclusivity so that students can contribute to development of sustainable event legacies.
The module focuses on three themes: the social and cultural contexts in which events take place; the various stakeholders who affect and are affected by events; and the social, cultural, environmental, economic and political impacts of events for states, regions, organisations, groups and individuals.
This module introduces students to key concepts in the visitor economy and looks specifically at the sectors of tourism, hospitality and events by developing knowledge, understanding and synthesis of their contemporary milieu.
The module recognises the importance of self-development, and lifelong learning for postgraduates. Students are challenged to engage in reflective thinking to further reassess their ability to effectively manage their own development amidst a diverse range of relationships and leadership encounters within the international hospitality, events and tourism industries.
