Are Leaders Born or Made?

Categories

Today’s blog is from our guest blogger, Jennifer Sabatini, Administrator here at Applied Vision Works.

There are those that believe individuals are just born leaders.  There are others who believe through experience and hard work, leaders are made.  What history shows us is that it is a little of both.

Take a look at Martin Luther King Jr., John F. Kennedy, Jr. and other dynamic leaders of the 20th century.  Were they born to be leaders or did circumstances and life experiences create or form them into leaders?  Let’s take a look at more current leaders like Steve Jobs.  He was an innovative, creative, strong leader of Apple.  Yet, he was also one to take time to listen to what people wanted and guided the innovators at Apple to create the technology that was being demanded and needed by society.

Here is a quote from financial guru, Dave Ramsey’s Daily Tips:

Leadership quote

When the term leaders or leadership is used, what qualities come to mind?  Assertive; Good Communication skills; Innovative ideas; Great Listening skills; Knowledgeable; Good under pressure; people naturally drawn to them and follow.

When you look at the leaders and possible leaders in your organization, what do you see?

  • Are your up and coming leaders “born” to be leaders or have they been “created” by their dynamics and experiences?
  • Are you looking at your current employees to see which of them can be developed into leaders?
  • What qualities are you looking for in leaders of your organization?
