The foundation of leadership

Introduction

Millions of books and papers have been published about leadership over time; apparently, very few things are to be discovered.
The concept of leadership is affected by many clichés; for example, the common belief that leadership is an innate characteristic of the individual: leader, according to some, you are born
My experience as a manager and business coach makes me say that leadership finds its foundation in the bond that the leader can build with the followers over time.
In essence, you can learn how to be a leader, and this course helps you discover how.
