The Principal's Global Leadership Award (PGLA) is a unique course that encourages students to engage with some of the most pressing problems of the twenty-first century and interrogate what it means to be a global leader.
Each year we run the PGLA, offering our postgraduate students and some undergraduates the opportunity to learn from former world leaders, senior politicians, academics and policymakers. The award is an exceptional opportunity to study leadership as both theory and practice, and to learn about leadership from globally-renowned experts in the field.
Previous leaders that have taught on the PGLA include former Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard; former UK Home Secretary Charles Clarke; former UK Universities Minister Lord David Willetts; former Head of OFSTED Baroness Sally Morgan; Professor Eileen Baldry from the University of New South Wales (Sydney); and the first black Vice-Chancellor of the University of Johannesburg, Professor Ihron Rensburg.
