Leadership Theories

About the Course

A leader doesn’t necessarily have to be a ‘manager’, but it’s difficult to see how a manager could be truly effective without having at least some leadership skills.

This course starts by introducing the basics of leadership and explores where the concept originated from. It then goes on to discuss various leadership theories.

Learning Objectives

By the end of this course, you will :

• Understand what the term Leadership means

• Be aware of the traits and behaviours of a good leader

• Understand the best way to be an effective leader

Target Audience

This course is aimed at supervisors and managers that want to develop more effective relationships with members of their teams. The course can be a great starting point for people new to their leadership role as well as more established managers that want to enhance their skills. This acts as a great introduction to the subject.

Advantages

Online training is flexible, efficient and cost effective meaning the candidate can progress through the modules at their own pace and in their own time, so they can fit the training around their work and personal life

Further Progression

For candidates that want to add more qualifications to their CV our Introduction to Emotional Intelligence course is a great introduction to that aspect of Leadership and management.

For candidates specifically interested in developing resilient teams our Developing Teamwork course goes hand in hand with this one and expands on some of the key ideas and how they can be applied to teams.

For candidates new to management roles Managing Meetings would be a great next step although working through any of our range of Business Skills courses would be valuable.
