„Ever since the distinction was made between leadership and management – leadership somehow being the important stuff and management being what surgeons call scut work – attention focused on leadership. My view is that management without leadership is disheartening or discouraging. And leadership without management is disconnected, because if you lead without managing, you don’t know what’s going on. It’s management that connects you to what’s going on. We can make the distinction between leadership and management conceptually, but in practice I don’t think we should“ Henry Mintzberg.

A lot of logistic managers come to management positions on the basis of their logistic knowledge and skills, but they have often not been trained in managerial skills.This module will give the students an insight in the different existing management models and teach them what kind of leadership style and skills are most successful in a special case.
