Learning as a group

"We've been using the Leaders are Made platform as a team for several months now and we love it! The short-hit videos cover a range of personal and professional development areas that are essential for both individual growth and for performing as a cohesive team. We come together regularly to discuss the learnings from the videos and talk about how we can apply them to our own situations. Not only is the material motivating, but the learning we've done as a group when we discuss it has really helped us grow."

Darryl Short, Loyalty NZ

Benefit by reframing situations

“I’ve been using Leaders Are Made for the past few months. I like to pop a video on a couple of mornings a week while I commute.

The benefit for me has been reframing situations relating to communication and conflict. The tools Cillin and his team use are digestible and reflect real-world situations. The quickly actionable nature of the content is what keeps me coming back for more.

If you’re looking to develop skills to assist you in leading productive high-performing teams, then I highly recommend Leaders Are Made.”

Tom Anderson, Secure23

A daily motivator

I wanted to thank you for the time and effort taken to produce such a well thought out and comprehensive product. The leadersaremade.tv platform is both a practical and a motivating knowledge tool. I use the product for my personal benefit and in the past have purchased for a team of Business Analysts I was leading. I wanted to share a few ways I have used it.

I personally enjoy setting a daily 15 min slot on a topic I am wanting to either learn or refresh my memory on. This becomes a fantastic motivator for the day (I look forward to sitting down having a knowledge bite with my morning cup of tea!).

With the team I was able to apply this in 1:1 catch-ups for individual growth, as all professions benefit from learning to interact with others with a leadership style. I can see how utilising this as a team topic in weekly catch-ups would be great too, coupled with a discussion.

The micro-learning style makes this such a great product. Once you dive into the content and utilise it, it really does contain a wealth of leadership knowledge. I highly recommend this product and am glad I found it when I did!

Natasha Wilson, Consultant

Supports many ways of learning

Leaders Are Made is a truly rich source of both personal and professional resources for both individuals and teams.

I personally cannot recommend this highly enough as its format supports so many ways of learning

- short bitesize video and written content for those wanting “Just in time training”

- cohesive and comprehensive themes for when you want to deep dive.

The content covers immediately applicable ideas and techniques – as well as pathways and approaches for those bigger and long-term goals.

My thanks to Cillín and the many other authors for this wonderful tool.
