Course Description

This course is made available through the eLearnAfrica and FutureLearn partnership.

Manage business transformation with the EFQM leadership framework


The EFQM model is a management and leadership framework designed to help drive business improvement and manage organisational change.


On this course, you will explore the fundamentals of the EFQM model. You will ask:
- Why? – clearly defining business purpose
- How? – looking at business operations
- What? – measuring achievements to date.


Through asking these questions you will learn how to improve business performance, and how to manage necessary changes to get there.


Drive business improvement through transformation


This leadership course will help you analyse the performance of your business using the EFQM model. You’ll discover how to bring about business transformation, define company culture, and incorporate best practices, like agile working.


Ultimately, the EFQM model will help you to cultivate better and more competitive organisations.


Discover the foundations of the EFQM model


The EFQM model was developed over 30 years ago by some of Europe’s most successful businesses. Since then, it has been used by thousands of organisations around the world to drive business improvement and manage change.


On this course you will begin to learn about the history of the EFQM model, and how and why it was developed. It can serve as a taster of a full EFQM qualification, if you want to first understand the fundamentals before going further.


This course is aimed at anyone seeking a practical framework for business improvement and organisational change management. It will also be of interest to those who have some knowledge of the EFQM model and want to know more.
