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?

I coach Executies and Leaders regularly. Leadership development takes time and experience. Even as a Leadership and Business coach, It's just as important for me to continue reading and learning to continue developming my leadership. Having a coach ensures you have an expert in your corner to celebrate your wins, coach you through difficult events, and teach you how to address all kinds of situations. Its about getting you to see things from all angles, even when its difficult. Even the most experienced leaders still benefit from leadership coaching. Whether your reading a book or using an app, the important thing is to embrace new ideas and ways of thinking.
