The training I received was on leadership, this was a formal training. The training was on, "What personal capacities should a person develop to be a good leader versus those developed to be a good manager?" The purpose of the training was to help management and leadership team to be better managers and leaders.
The training was evaluated based on knowledge gained, a leader need to be honest, confident in his or ability to lead others, be respectful, enthusiastic about their work, and need to be trustworthy.
The capacities versus being a good leader versus those developed to be a good manager: a manager should first be self-motivated, reliable, have positive attitude, be confident in his or her ability to succeed, humble and always willing to be flexible. A good manager need to be knowledgeable, business oriented well organized and has great communication skills to communicate effectively. Good leaders know how to follow, and they set example for others (Daft, R. L. 2017).
The training was beneficiary; it contributed to my academic, professional and personal life. I was enthusiastic about the training and would not change anything.
