Great leaders are not born, they are made




          Great leaders are not born, they are made. If a person has the desire and determination, he can become an effective leader. Great leaders develop through a never ending process of self-study, education, training and experience. There are certain things a leader must be know and do to motivate leader into higher levels of teamwork. These do not come naturally, but are acquired through continual work and study. Great leaders are continually working and studying to improve their leadership skills.

            What is a leader? By definition, a leader is 'a person who rules or guides or inspires others.'  A leader is someone others are willing to follow, almost without question. They may not always make the right decision, but they are confident in the decisions that they make. They are not afraid to admit when they are wrong, and they know when to change direction when an inappropriate choice has been made. In short, leaders have something within that the others just don't have.

            Let's talk about leadership characteristics. A common characteristic to leaders is the courage to taking risks. Taking the risk means a leader will speak out, persuade, or just make the change that leads to innovation. Leaders also have a strong belief and enthusiasm in themselves and what they are doing.
Therefore, great leaders are definitely made, they are not born. But the environment will determine whether leaders can develop their talents or not and it’s your responsibility to provide it J.

Leaders are made, they are not born. They are made by hard effort, which is the price which all of us must pay to achieve any goal that is worthwhile.
