My opinions on "Leaders born or made"


Throughout human history great people with leadership capability are either born with it or they are made into a leader by circumstances. Regardless both a natural gifted leader and self-made leaders are both good in their own right but if we were to analyze deeper into a gifted leader and a self-made leader we could see that gifted leaders are as good as they come due to the fact that they did not go through trials and tabulations of being a inexperience leader however this is only partly true as some gifted leaders are born in a sense that power, respect and authority are not served to them on a silver platter which shows that they did worked for their statues. If you’re wondering “wait this sounds more like a self-made leader.” Yes you are right this indeed sound like a self-made leader however being gifted is one thing, working for your subordinates’ respect is another. What I’m trying to say here is that, leaders regardless of how gifted he or she may be cannot be a true leader as they never started from rock bottom and rise through the rank whereas a self-made leader worked from the bottom up and therefore he can relate to his subordinates better which in turn earn their respects. A good king does not force people to bow to him; a good inspires the people to stand with him. In a nut shell, a good leader is a person who can earn the love and respect of their subordinates.
