Course Summary

The course has been developed to support senior and aspiring leaders within sporting organisations, whilst also being highly relevant to athletes wanting to diversify their skill set (off the pitch), with skills and approaches that can be implemented in their organisation or entrepreneurial venture.

The programme is designed for individuals who are:

  • Currently working in sporting organisations in the sporting sector, who are looking for a formal management or leadership qualification to take their career to the next level.
  • Professional or semi-professional athletes, thinking about developing their management and entrepreneurial skills, ready for life after retirement from professional sport.
  • Looking to build a career in the sporting sector.

Modules

This module offers a unique exploration of entrepreneurial action within the dynamic and ever-evolving world of sports and associated ventures. Designed for professionals working in sports organizations and those from a sporting (or non-sporting) background looking to move into new directions, the module challenges assumptions of the stereotypical entrepreneur and examines the intersection of entrepreneurship, sport, culture, and the economy. The fundamentals of initiating entrepreneurial ventures (sporting or non-sporting), including business planning and development strategies will be discussed within the sports industry and beyond.
