If managers are trustworthy, adapt leadership styles, inspire their subordinates, and effectively work 'through' them, organizations would be having better business results.
But not all managers exhibit these qualities.
A Gallup poll found that only 18% of managers demonstrate a high level of talent for managing others – meaning a shocking 82% of managers are not very good at leading people.
One of the major reasons for this is that, moving seamlessly from a hands-on role to a leadership role, most managers are usually ill-prepared and consequently unaware of key leadership and management principles required to keep their team productive.
Also, the processes that help determine leaders in many organizations often produce managers based on tenure or previous manager roles – with little account for whether they possess business leadership skills.
And these are the skills that galvanize other functions and help to positively influence subordinates to want to follow. Hence without them, managers find it difficult to get the best out of their subordinates.
But the reality is that, for most employees, business leadership skills do not come naturally. This means they need to learn them and how to apply them. And that’s the essence of this course.
A tool for leadership development, it's designed to help managers create and accomplish their personal best; lead others to get extraordinary things done; and become more effective in translating the vision and strategies of the executive leadership into actionable plans and overseeing their execution.

The LearnSmart Advantage
Flexible, Participant-Paced Learning
All LearnSmart courses are delivered online through our interactive learning platform, allowing participants to learn wherever and whenever it is convenient.
Using the unique login details we provide, participants simply access the course through their web browser on a computer, smartphone, or tablet – no special software installation required.
Because every participant learns differently, each person controls their own pace. They can pause, reflect, revisit previous lessons, and continue exactly where they stopped. Progress is automatically saved, making learning convenient even for busy professionals.
Most participants complete their training within one week, although they have 30 days of access (extendable where necessary).
Designed for Better Learning
LearnSmart courses are carefully designed to maximize understanding, participation, and long-term retention – not simply content consumption.
Throughout each course, participants actively engage with practical questions, exercises, knowledge checks, and interactive learning activities that reinforce understanding as they progress.
Unlike traditional classroom sessions where learning must keep pace with the facilitator, LearnSmart allows every participant to spend more time on concepts they find challenging while moving quickly through familiar areas. This flexibility leads to deeper understanding, stronger retention, and greater confidence in applying new knowledge on the job.
For the best learning experience, we recommend completing the course in shorter learning sessions spread over several days rather than trying to finish everything in one sitting.
Learning Management & Participant Support
Learning does not end after enrollment.
Our team stays in touch with participants throughout their learning journey, providing reminders, encouragement, and support until they complete their course. This proactive approach contributes to our consistently high course completion rates.
Organizational Progress Reports
For organizations enrolling employees, we provide periodic training reports until all participants complete their courses.
Each report includes:
This enables managers and HR teams to monitor participation and completion without additional administrative effort.
Certificate of Training
Participants who successfully complete the course receive a LearnSmart Certificate of Training.
