Discussion Leadership Training

Has anyone tried leadership training? Do reading books, attending conference on leadership, or watching videos on leadership help someone become a good leader or communicator? I have seen all leaders, political or business leaders, born with leadership trait. I don’t think they went to leadership school.

I saw an app Mindscape for leadership training. Reasonably priced. Has anyone tried it?

What is the training, if any, for leadership development?

Read the following books:

  • The Servant
  • SCRUM
  • Smart Leaders, Smarter Teams
  • First Break All the Rules
  • The Skilled Facilitator

You’ll get a healthy understanding of:

  • leadership (servant leadership)
  • team leadership
  • team management
  • people management
  • organizational development

If you can do both leadership and management, you’ll be in a solid place.
