Abstract
The purpose of the present study is to explore how leaders learn and develop

competent leadership through a qualitative examination of middle managers in a

large Norwegian financial institution. This study investigates how leaders learn

through leadership development initiatives, and found that such initiatives may

yield effective learning outcomes when combining practices and adapting to

organisational context. In particular, leaders appear to learn and develop through

formal acquisitions of tools and methods, cooperation, and networks that allow for

reflective thinking. Additionally, the study illuminates aspects of competent

leadership and propose that leadership development initiatives may contribute to

the development of competent leader characteristics. Hence, the study provides

insight to the understanding of how leadership development initiatives may target

skills, knowledge and expertise that can lead to competent leadership.
