A SKILL SET CALLED LEADERSHIP

Leadership is a skill that one is almost always born with and therefore can not be bred into a person. I do believe some people can be brought up to be great leaders but the ones who are born leaders will be great and those taught to be leaders will just be average, again this is my own opinion.

Being a leader is a huge task, as you need to gain the trust of your followers. You need to be confident in yourself and you need to know what you are doing, is right. Never deny yourself in any way when it comes to leading your followers. Believe that any instinct you have is almost always a good instinct so go with it.

One big decision you need to make, is if you are going to be a great ‘good’ leader or great ‘bad’ leader and what I mean by this is are you going to be Nelson Mandela or Adolf Hitler? They were both great leaders but they affected their nations in two completely different ways. This is your decision; just remember you are constructing not only your destiny but those of your followers as well.
