Some people are born to be a leadership others belive that leadership can be learned. Discuss both views and give your opinion.

#people #leadership #belive
It is believed by a few people that
leaders
 are inherited from birth while other individuals think
this
 is something they can learn with experiences and lessons in life.
This
 essay will discuss various notions behind both these viewpoints and according to my understanding
leaders
 can be built with their development even if they are not born with it. On the one side of
this
 argument, it is true that different communities are believing that born
leaders
 are greater captains who can lead a troupe. We can agree with
this
 statement partially because if a parent is having good leadership skills,
then
 their children could have these qualities from genes. For an instance, a former prime minister Indra Gandhi presumably a born commander was recognised as a valuable person.
Therefore
, his son had possessed similar qualities since childhood.
Therefore
, it is agreed on the judgement of any person can be born with some inherited characteristics.
In contrast
, I myself am under the impression a head can be developed within themselves through a plethora of training and skills. It might be a long-term process but, can be claimed to be successful. If we only concentrate on the
leaders
 by birth, society will only have a small set of superior individuals as
such
. Leading could be learned through accurate decision-making at the right time. Managing
this
 talent can be improved via personality development classes. To elaborate
further
 with an illustration, a remarkable politician Chandrika Kumarathunga
initially
 had stage fear in school.
However
, became a persistent prime minister in Sri Lanka.
Thus
, a person can become a leader with a continuous commitment to developing themselves to make precise decisions. To conclude,
although
 many hold the belief,
leaders
 can be only born. I hereby state that they can learn
this
 process with different experiences at work and in life and
also
 with education.
