We all have 'A Leader' in ourselves - BUT - we seldom 'DISCOVER' and 'NURTURE' the same. This presentation is an effort to make a conscious realization of this fact and then make the real efforts to bring 'A Change' through 'Leadership'. The particular focus in this presentation are the Heads and Managers of Educational Institutions who are directly responsible for crafting leaders out of the youth of this era. We also need to know the traits and qualities that a true leader must have. This presentation portrays the characteristics of a 'True Leader'.
