Abstract:
This research explored how leadership training affected Nueva Ecija college students' academic and social results. Descriptive study was conducted on 100 college students who took leadership training classes. Academic performance, academic engagement, study patterns, learning attitudes, and problem-solving skills were evaluated as academic outcomes. The social outcomes included interpersonal skills, peer relationships, self-esteem, conflict resolution and teamwork abilities. Academic and social outcomes were positively impacted by leadership training, according to the findings. Students reported a high level of academic engagement, positive attitudes toward learning, and beneficial study habits. However, academic performance and problem-solving skills had modest room for development. Socially, students reported great peer connections, high self-esteem, and successful team cooperation, but interpersonal and conflict resolution abilities needed work. The research found that leadership training improves student academic and social skills. It also suggests improving problem-solving, interpersonal skills, and conflict resolution in the programs. These findings have implications for educators and administrators regarding the optimization of leadership training design and delivery. Future research can investigate the longitudinal effects of leadership development and its other possible benefits.
