Self Improvement and Leadership Speeches/Programs/Courses

No matter how strong you currently are in your personal or professional life, you can and must continue to strive for improvement. This page is dedicated to helping you do that.

Great leaders understand that their journey toward personal growth is, in fact, a journey - it's not about reading a single book, or watching a certain seminar or attending the ultimate 90-day course.

As leadership expert John Maxwell often says:  "God prepares leaders in a slow-cooker, not in a microwave oven."

Your leadership development journey must be ongoing.  You can only lead people up to the level of your own leadership knowledge.  Therefore, if you are not constantly learning and growing, you will create a ceiling on your ability to lead others to a higher level. 

The same is true for self improvement - if you stop learning and growing in your personal development, you are limiting your opportunity, and that of your team, to achieve at greater levels. 

Self Improvement & Leadership Activities

Get ready to be introduced to some amazing self improvement and leadership resources - which do not cost you anything other than your time to learn from world-class speakers and instructors.

The people we are about to introduce will share their most valuable and powerful self improvement and leadership lessons, which will enable you to be more confident; more productive, and ultimately more successful in both your personal and professional life.

So sit back with a cup of coffee (or favorite glass of wine) and enjoy meeting some folks that we believe will add considerable value to your personal development and leadership journey.

Leadership-Tools.com has researched many self improvement and leadership programs over the years. Most of the programs we've reviewed do not appear on our website simply because the material is, in our opinion, priced way too high or just doesn't meet our quality standards. 

With new technology on your side, you no longer need to spend hundreds or thousands of dollars to access high quality self improvement and leadership development material. However, it does take time to wade through all the available resources and pick out the best training resources that are just right for you and your team.

Good news, that's where we come in - we've done all the heavy lifting for you. 

Daily Self Improvement & Leadership Tools

In order to ensure continuous learning and personal growth, take an opportunity to set yourself up for success.

Below are two simple steps you can take to ensure that you are learning and growing on a daily basis. Feed your mind with daily doses of positive and motivational thoughts. Fuel yourself with daily nuggets of timeless self improvement and leadership wisdom that will help you to maintain a positive and thoughtful mindset.

This isn't rocket science folks. If you're serious about personal and professional development, then we encourage you to expose yourself on a daily basis to wise words and inspirational messages that keep you focused and motivated on achieving your goals. 

Leadership Interview Videos

Listening to topical interviews can provide valuable insights into what drives highly successful people and how they approach and overcome challenges.

Unlike talking from prepared statements or presenting a fine-tuned speech, the person being interviewed doesn't always know in advance what questions will be asked.  

The interview format provides a unique view into the person and his or her ability to think on their feet.  In addition, an interview can often test a subject on just how well they know their own material.  

Some material can contain references to God and religion, or some level of profanity. Always watch the entire video before sharing with your team to ensure that you feel the material is appropriate for your workplace.

Consider watching interviews such as these as part of your self improvement and leadership development plan.

Leadership Speeches & Presentation Videos

Why not invite a world-class expert to address staff at your next team meeting?  It's easy to do and it costs you absolutely nothing. With minimal audio/visual support (laptop and a monitor or projector) you can introduce your team to the world's best leadership training.  

The fact that you have the insight to bring this level of expertise to your team, and to your business or company, will be recognized by your team, peers and upper management as being savvy, creative, thoughtful and forward-looking.

Today there are so many different sources of leadership speeches and presentations worthy of your consideration.  YouTube is a common source for video that hosts countless leadership speeches and presentations offered by well established speakers.  There are some terrific sources for ongoing training such as TedTalks, GoogleTalks, Podcasts and many more.  

Check out these hand-picked selections and consider how you might leverage this valuable content for the benefit of your team and organization.

Leadership Courses, Series & Workshop Videos

Here we've selected some great courses and workshops that provide more in-depth material on the subjects of self improvement and leadership development.  

While some people just want to hear the key points and run with it, others prefer to dive into the details and really soak up the material.  

The following selections provide just a sampling of what is available, and again, it's all free so there's really no good excuse for not sharing quality leadership training with your team members. They will definitely thank you for it. 

Reminder:  Some material can contain references to God and religion, or even some level of profanity.  Be sure to watch the entire video before sharing with your team to ensure that you feel the material is appropriate for your workplace.

Hopefully you've enjoyed our selections for Daily Actions, Interviews, Speeches/Presentations and Courses/Series/Workshops.  

One question we hear often is:  "How do you find all this great material?"  

Answer:  WE LOOK FOR IT.

Yes, it takes time to find the right kind of self improvement or leadership development content, but in doing so we always discover a new speaker, a new resource or a new idea. The time you take to research quality training material for you or your team is an investment that comes back to you in the form of personal growth and increased credibility as a leader.

We realize that in some cases you don't have time to show a 30 minute interview or a 1 hr speech, let alone a 3-5 hour workshop.  If that's your challenge, then be sure to check out our page on Leadership Video Short-Clips, a perfect solution to tee up a conversation at your next team meeting.
