What participants say about Personal Leadership
Excellent course with a high level of personal attention. Participants' contributions are also greatly appreciated. The trainer's advance preparation creates a very engaged feeling.
Do you want to look for your personal areas for improvement? Are you curious about how you can communicate better, perform better and, as a result, live a more pleasant and successful life? Then the personal effectiveness course is for you! You will look (on your own initiative and at your own pace) at the areas in which you can function better as a person, and if you are open to self-development and growth, this course will definitely help you with that.
This course made me aware of my abilities and what I am capable of. I now dare to work much more from my own strength and I feel that my self-confidence has grown. My assertiveness has also increased, as I received many good tips and exercises. I now dare to say what I want more often and let people walk all over me less.
The personal effectiveness course has helped me move forward towards greater personal insight into patterns of behaviour and my reactions in the present, and how they arose in the past. I have also been given tools that make me strongly feel that I once again have the choice of how I want to respond to events. My sense of self-determination and strength is growing and I am once again connected with my inner self.
Frequently asked questions about Personal Leadership
Who is the Personal Leadership course suitable for and is prior knowledge required?
The Personal Leadership course is suitable for anyone who wants to work on self-insight and leadership skills. Think of team leaders, managers, HR staff, entrepreneurs and professionals at any level who want to increase their self-awareness and emotional intelligence. No prior knowledge is required. So you don't need any previous education or work experience. Only the willingness to invest in yourself.
What does the teaching method of the Personal Leadership course look like?
You take the Personal Leadership course in a classroom setting, alternating between experiencing, experimenting with behaviour, reflecting and theory. You work with role plays, practical exercises and group discussions. This active approach means you experience the effect of new behaviour straight away. An intake interview takes place beforehand, so that the programme matches your learning objectives and your situation at work.
Do you receive a certificate after completing the Personal Leadership course?
Yes, you receive a certificate of participation after completing the Personal Leadership course. The certificates are presented on the third day, during the closing session. The certificate confirms that you have worked on communication styles, self-awareness, feedback, developing a vision and a personal action plan. No exam is required; active participation is sufficient.
Can the Personal Leadership course also be taken in-company or as a tailored course?
Yes, the Personal Leadership course is also available in-company and as a tailor-made programme. Before the course, individual intake interviews take place in which your learning objectives, prior knowledge and practical experience are mapped out. On that basis the final programme of the course is determined, so that the content matches your situation and that of your team.
What will you learn during the Personal Leadership course?

What is the difference between the Personal Leadership course and a short online self-leadership course?
An online self-leadership course usually consists of videos, theory and self-reflection assignments that you work through at your own pace. The Personal Leadership course at Learnit is a classroom course of in which you actively practise communication styles, giving and receiving feedback, and setting SMART goals. You work in a small group and take part in role plays in which you receive immediate feedback from the trainer and fellow participants. That element is missing in self-study. The course and concludes with a personal action plan and a certificate of participation. Choose self-study if you mainly want to acquire knowledge. Choose this classroom course if you genuinely want to change behaviour and practise through interaction.
How do I know whether Learnit's Personal Leadership course is right for me?
The course suits you if you want to invest in self-insight, communication and behavioural change in a classroom setting, and are prepared to reflect actively on your own patterns.

The course is less suitable if you are mainly looking for hard management techniques, project management tools or purely theoretical depth. The emphasis is on experiencing, experimenting and feedback in a group. No prior knowledge is required. An individual intake interview takes place beforehand in which your learning objectives are identified, so that the final programme can be tailored to them. In doubt? The intake will make clear whether the course fits your situation.
