Introduction to Effective Leadership

Description

Leadership is critical to our everyday lives. At work, at home, with colleagues or friends, leadership can be used to create positive situations and experiences wherever you are.

Effective leaders in the workplace don’t have to be in management positions—rather they are able to use their leadership skills to help all of their colleagues follow their lead to higher morale and better outcomes for their organization. These skills can help you be a better employee, colleague, and participant in your organization. Traits that help motivate, inspire, and create sound strategy effectively move you into a better leadership role, whatever your job title. The definition of a manager isn't necessarily the same as a leader, and effective leadership skills can transform your entire organization. Effective leadership can make a significant difference in the success of a team or company. Effective leaders possess a range of skills and qualities that enable them to inspire and motivate others, set clear goals, and make sound decisions.
