development is very important.

26. Conclusion
So are leaders born? or Are they made? or both? We are, for
most part born the same.
We ALL have the same faculties to exploit.
Ten fingers.
Ten toes. So it has to do with environmental factors
that affect the individual.
Leaders are made.
Leaders become leaders in 1 of 3 ways:
1. a crisis or event pushes them into leadership
2. their personality leads them into it
3. they choose to be a leader.
Leadership is a skill and like any other skill can be acquired.
