FAQ
What specific qualifications or prerequisites are needed for participants before enrolling in the course?
This course does not require any formal academic prerequisites. However, it is designed for professionals who are currently in or preparing for leadership roles across various industries. Ideal participants include senior managers, department heads, HR professionals, team leaders, and high-potential employees. Familiarity with organizational dynamics and people management is helpful but not mandatory.
How long is each day's session, and is there a total number of hours required for the entire course?
Each day's session is generally structured to last around 4–5 hours, with breaks, exercises, and discussion intervals included. The total course spans 10 days, amounting to approximately 40 to 50 hours of intensive leadership development through both theoretical learning and practical application.
Isn’t emotional intelligence just another name for good communication skills?
Not quite. While emotional intelligence (EI) does support effective communication, it is much broader. In this course, EI is presented using frameworks such as Daniel Goleman’s model, which includes self-awareness, self-regulation, motivation, empathy, and social skills. These elements impact not just how you communicate, but how you lead, coach, negotiate, and resolve conflict. EI is the foundation for sustainable and ethical leadership, not just verbal fluency.
How This Course is Different from Other Leadership Development Courses
The Complete Leadership Development Training Course is unique because it approaches leadership as a multidimensional discipline. Unlike many generic courses that focus only on managing teams, this program expands leadership into four interconnected domains: leading self, superiors, followers, and peers. It embeds real-world leadership tools like the Ask-Tell Matrix, Thomas-Kilmann Conflict Mode Instrument, 16 Personalities Assessment, and Edward de Bono’s Six Thinking Hats, equipping participants with a practical and measurable leadership toolkit.
Throughout the 10-day program, participants not only learn how to lead but also how to coach others, influence ethically, negotiate win-win outcomes, and make strategic decisions using models like Root Cause Analysis, Fishbone Diagrams, and Divergent Thinking techniques.
Additionally, this course focuses heavily on emotional intelligence, conflict resolution, and leadership integration, making it ideal for organizations looking to future-proof their leadership pipeline. The interactive methodology — including simulations, roleplays, and personalized leadership planning — ensures that learning is retained, applied, and scaled across teams.
