Some are of the opinion that people are naturally born as good leaders while others feel that leadership skills can be learned. Discuss both views and give your own opinion. 

Many of us believe that leadership is an inherent quality that
one
could possess by birth. There are
also
those who think
one
can learn to be a good
leader
. A

One
could be born with the qualities of a good

and
one
could

learn to be a good

through

by birth would be quick at thinking about resolutions to trickiest of situations, directing people on how to move ahead and inspire those who follow in the process. Examples to

enaissance period and various personalities who started revolutions around the world and paved the way towards peace and harmony. The leaders who are born with these qualities,
also
keep improving themselves with each experience they have in life.
On the other hand
, there are
also
those, who learn and imbibe the qualities of their
leader
, work on themselves and learn from their failures and mistakes and eventually become a
leader
for many others.
For example
, entrepreneurs and businessmen who succeed after many failed attempts. I believe that both these scenarios are possible,
one
could be a
leader
by birth or strive to be a
leader
by continuously learning from
one
’s experiences and improving oneself. It is a completely self-driven process.
