I have come across many a people who were in important leadership positions and …..ya.
What is a leader? Can you acquire leadership? Is it a skill? Are you born with it? These are the questions that come to mind when the word “leader” comes into question.
There are a few ways of looking at it. Some people are born with this skill, for eg: when kids are playing, you can see who the leader in the bunch is. The one they take instructions from, leads their way, gives orders to the rest. Where does a kid learn how to be a leader? They don’t, it comes naturally, and so it should.
Many people are placed in leadership roles at their workplaces and they simply don’t crack it. These so-called managers/supervisors are sometimes terrible at setting an example and getting their subordinates to reach targets, work to the best of their ability, etc and they just burn out. Some take on this role and just make it theirs, with so much effort and pizzazz, they assume the role perfectly. We don’t all have the skill and its very unfortunate, this world would be a much better place if we had good leaders. Peace :J
