Course Overview
They say that leaders are born, not made. While it is true that some
people are born leaders, some leaders are born in the midst of
adversity. Often, simple people who have never had a leadership role
will stand up and take the lead when a situation they care about
requires it. A simple example is parenting. When a child arrives, many
parents discover leadership abilities they never knew existed in order
to guide and protect their offspring.
Once you learn the techniques of true Leadership And Influence, you
will be able to build the confidence it takes to take the lead. The more
experience you have acting as a genuine leader, the easier it will be
for you. It is never easy to take the lead, as you will need to make
decisions and face challenges, but it can become natural and rewarding.
Research has consistently demonstrated that when clear goals are
associated with learning that the learning occurs more easily and
rapidly. With that in mind, let’s review our goals for today.
