About the Course

Welcome to the Leadership Skills course! In our increasingly complex world, understanding the practice of leadership is critical. In simpler words, leadership is the practice of influencing people to meet the challenges that will enable them to achieve important individual and organizational goals. This course provides a foundation for leadership practice and aims to take you on a journey of self-discovery. You will also gain insight into building inner stability and developing your leadership skills. This is a beginner course designed for professionals from diverse work backgrounds. The course helps you lean on your experiences and strengthen your capacity to lead across boundaries, from any political or organizational position, with or without authority. The course will also enable you to learn important leadership skills, clarifying the relationships among key concepts such as definitions of leadership, self-management, authority, power, influence, politics, negotiations, change management, decision-making, and various leadership styles. This knowledge will provide you with a practical and coherent theoretical framework for applying and exercising leadership. Lastly, the course explores the challenge of managing the inevitable personal stresses and dangers of leading a team. The course draws from business management, philosophy, spirituality, history, literature, sports, communications, and psychology. To succeed in this course, you should have experience or a basic understanding of working in organizations....

Me gustó mucho el curso, pero me hubiera gustado que el profesor enfatizara más y mejor en el liderazgo femenino. En términos generales vi un liderazgo masculino en el curso, lo que me hace pensar que sigue la hegemonía masculina y la noté también en los videos, en las imágenes, que la mayoría eran de varones. No obstante lo anterior, me gustó mucho el curso y me cautivó al inicio lo relacionado al ciclo automático del comportamiento y el capital psicológico, que como investigadora he trabajado ese tema en mi país. Sin duda, aprendí cosas para mi vida personal (poder personal) y el tema del liderazgo hacia arriba me parece muy bueno. Falta una estrella en mi valoración, por lo relacionado con la visión masculina del liderazgo. Sugiero equilibrar en este sentido la temática e incluir una perspectiva femenina y masculina.

We all have some or few leadership qualities in us, its just that we need a direction to focus and practice those enabling us enhance ourselves in the long run. I am extremely thankful to the instructor Mr. Vishal Gupta who has touched almost all the points which we come across in daily life. With the help of this course we can look into ourselves and just changing or modifying certain skills we can change ourselves from managers to leaders. Wish them all the very best.

Every topic was well-covered. Loved the Mahabharat teachings. The only suggestion - the intro and outro music is too loud and hurts the ears as it is not as per the speaking volume of the teacher. Please reduce the volume of the music

Wonderful Value Addition.

If you could us free access to a few case studies from IIM-A, that would be of great value.
