Core concepts

Leadership sets direction, inspires and influences; management plans, organizes and controls. Successful projects need both.
Exam cue: Choose leadership for alignment and motivation, management for structure and control, or both.
Concept 2
Collaboration and co-creation involve people in shaping workable products, decisions and change.
Exam cue: Assess team design against the work and context rather than job titles alone.
Concept 3
Effective teams combine appropriate diversity, capability and competence with clarity, trust and constructive behaviour.
