Some leadership training stays with you throughout your career.
I have attended several leadership courses over the years. Some have been good, others… so-so.
But the first one I attended, focused on situational leadership, is still the one I remember best—and the one that gave me the most.
I have since attended similar training in both the UK and China, but that first course in Sweden still stands out.
A big part of that was the trainer. He was engaged, explained things in a way we could all understand, and clearly enjoyed the subject. He believed that leadership mattered, and that enthusiasm stayed with me.
I think that makes a real difference. When you teach leadership, you need to believe in what you are saying. For me, practical experience adds credibility: having worked in a business, managed people, faced difficult decisions, and dealt with the consequences.
It helps connect the theory to situations you actually recognise.
Of course, you do not need a course to learn about leadership. We learn every day from colleagues, mistakes, conversations, and experience. But good training can give you useful tools, a fresh perspective, and more confidence when handling a difficult situation.
Years later, I still remember that first course.
That says something about the impact a good teacher can have. 😀
