Positional and Personal Power In Leadership

In CREATOR ACADEMY's Leadership Course (LDC), you will explore the significance of a leader's personal and positional power in their role. The positional power of a leader is seen in their management role, where authority is given and yielded. However, according to several case studies on leadership impact, a leader's personal power has more influence than their positional power. This goes to show that even though you may be given the authority to lead, your influence on your team highly depends on your personal power, which are your personality, interpersonal communication skills and emotional intelligence.


At CREATOR's LDC, we guide managers and aspiring leaders on how to cultivate their personal power in order to effectively complement their positional power at the workplace to nurture harmonious and successful working relationships.

Using Social Media to Enhance SEO

Social media activity and SEO (search engine optimization)  success  are closely tied together . This is because the key to online discovery isn’t just the content you produce and post to your social channels; it's also the basic information contained within those accounts, as this what helps direct traffic from search engines.
