The Leadership Skills e-Learning course has been developed by leading experts accredited by a certification body (CPD & ILM Approved). 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. A strong leader will motivate their team, improving morale and efficiency, and ensure that their team is of a common purpose.

Who this course is aimed at? 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.

This course is also addressed to individuals who are doing the training for themselves or it can be pitched to businesses who might want to put all of their first-line management team through the training, so they are all work in the same way and have the same skill set.

Course objectives: 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, including situational leadership, contingency theories, transactional and transformational leadership, and more. It then moves on to discuss developing teams including and team members by looking at the role leaders play in this. The final two modules cover the role communication plays in effective leadership and finishes off with a module about moving forward together to achieve a shared vision.
