Questions about leadership development micro courses

What do the leadership development micro courses cover?

They cover the skills managers use every day: running 1:1s, giving feedback, managing performance, delegating, motivating a team, communicating clearly and looking after wellbeing. There are also courses for new managers and AI literacy courses for leaders.

Who are these courses for?

New and experienced managers, team leads and high performers stepping into leadership. Many courses, such as Confident Communication and Navigating Conflict, work for anyone who wants stronger soft skills.

Can people practice these skills, not just learn them?

Yes. With AI Roleplays in AI Studio, people practice conversations such as giving feedback or a performance review. Every attempt is scored out of 100 against a rubric your admins can edit, with coaching feedback.

How long do the courses take?

Each microlesson takes about 5 minutes. A micro course is made up of several microlessons, so the total time varies by topic. The number of microlessons is shown on every course card.

Can I get a free sample lesson?

Yes. Request a free sample lesson and book a short demo with our team. After your demo, we'll share sample lessons with you so you can see the format for yourself.
