Are Leadership Programs Worth It?

It's a common question that many business professionals ask.

We're going to answer in less than 30 seconds.

Short Answer: Absolutely. Establish an educational foundation of basic leadership principles then collect continuing education credits.

Long Answer: Yes! Leadership isn't a static topic. It changes constantly. What worked twenty, ten, or even five years ago may not apply today. For that reason, you should continue to learn about emerging leadership trends and continue to educate yourself on the skills that can make an impact on your career, team, or life.

Before you choose a Leadership Program, do the following

Make Sure The Leadership Program Is Worth It

Starting a leadership program is no light affair. Most leadership courses can exceed $2,000. That's a huge investment. If you're going to make that choice, make sure you will learn something that directly links back to a skill. Don't take a leadership development course that cannot be applied to your resume or to your daily actions.

Make Sure The Leadership Program Is From An Accredited, Respected, Or Established Source

Accredited, respected, or established programs can be put on your resume or used immediately. Using a source that isn't a resume or immediate skill builder is a waste of money. Take the time to search for a program that will give you an immediate lift in your resume, career, or skills.
