Leadership: Becoming an Effective Leader

How to become a more effective, dynamic leader while managing teams to get things done

A leader is a person who has a vision, a drive, and a commitment to achieve that vision, and the skills to make it happen. Leadership itself has not evolved, but our understanding of it has.

Understanding why very different leadership styles can be effective, why the same leadership techniques will not work in every situation, and which leadership style fits your personality best is essential.

Management and leadership are connected, but they are not the same thing. Management is about getting things done and helping people be productive and efficient, and it’s an important part of any successful organization. Leadership is just as important. Leadership is about aligning, motivating, and helping people become the best version of themselves. You’ll need both to be successful in business, but this course focuses on leadership.

In this course, you'll learn what it takes to become a great leader, the leadership theories, and how leadership and management can coexist to achieve results, reach your vision, and empower your team to become better people. We will discuss the following:

  • What leadership truly is
  • The differences between leadership and management
  • Thoughts and theories on leadership
  • Your leadership style
  • Secrets of public leadership


In this course, you'll learn some immediate techniques to take and apply to your role, regardless of the job title, to become a more effective, engaging, and dynamic leader. Enroll today and continue to work towards your success as a leader. What you’ll learn:
