GREAT LEADERS are not born, they are made.


           Leader?, what are leader means?. Leader is a person that  lead a group of people to achieve the objectives of the group. For centuries there are debates on either the great leaders are born or been made. But in our opinions, the leaders are been made, not born


 Leader need to show the good examples for his/her followers

            Actually the word of made is suit to be replace with 'train' as it sound a bit weird  for human being. Besides that, an individual can make improvements or sharpen the leadership skills through many programs that have been organized by governments or non-government. The idea on leader are born not been made is not very much accepted as if one day there is no leader are born among us, are we will live without a leader?. The answer is of course not. Just imagine for example, the ships boarding at the sea without a captain, how on earth the ship crew will determine their aim and destination?. One things for sure, the chaos situations are failed to avoid.

           

'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.' --Vince Lombardi

'The most dangerous leadership myth is that leaders are born -- that there is a genetic factor to leadership. This myth asserts that people simply either have certain charismatic qualities or not. That's nonsense; in fact, the opposite is true. Leaders are made rather than born.' --Warren G. Bennis

Always ready to take any risk is one of the leader responsibility

              Even the famous and great philosophers mentioned that leaders are been made, not born. Actually, it can deny that someone has born with extra leader characteristics than others, but this behavior and skills can be polish and develop so that we will not face the problem that have been stated above. In conclusion, based on the point given, great leaders are made, not born.
