In the past, when you subscribe to anthony robbins leadership camp,. it seems that anyone can lead, but as one grows older in life , you find that it not the case, some people seem to have the traits of great leadership so is it born or made?

the Bear SG

they're all wrong..

good leaders happen because of circumstances...

Mao Zedong would have been beaten to death by the authorities now..
Bobby Kennedy would be drowned by cynicism...
Shaka Zulu would become one of the many corrupt warlords in Africa..
Che would just be a joke...

Zarks SG

i wonder too..

Will a leader be born or made?

If a loser wanted to be a leader, can he
make it with all his bad habit and attitude and thinking?

Can anyone be a leader? So its born or made?

nehpyh SG

Leaders definitely dun drop from the sky....so they are born (ok dun stone me).

Some leaders are born cos they pick up faster, it's their characteristics to dominate and control, etc...

Some leaders are made cos they have to survive, to complete a task.

And then you intriduced the word 'great ' to leadership. Now great leaders are born, trained, exposed, and fated to live out their lives.

What is your definition of a great leader?

gunner77 SG

Deino SG

leaders are born when they are made........

not from birth born but from self realisation......

there are too many definitions for a good leader......

elementalangel SG

Deino SG

leaders are extereme people.. either they get stonned to death.. or they get praised where ever they go..

there are many types of leaders ofcourse.......those that get stoned to death and praised everywhere they go are the unrealistic types......

true leaders will always get both praises and critisisms.......

Zarks SG

dont u hate some1 who easily becomes a leader and somewhat having very high IQ comparing to oneself?

hmmm....naturally most people would feel that way......but must accept that he could probably be a good leader......

but then, a good leader serves his people and not be served by his people.......

Zarks SG

serving ppl is not the main problem..
The main is that if one is leader , can he able to take the responsibility seriously.. i doubt not many can.

toyota-corolla SG

Leaders are born. And from there onwards they learn even more.

小白脸 SG

I would say made.

Last time was a sheep, then as I rised up, more responsibilities and trust are thrust upon me so no choice but to lead.

hmmm...responsibility......yeah it is hard.....but sometimes its the people also who gives the leader a hard time......

indonesia is one case......leaders cannot make good descitions becoz the people dun wan to compromise.......instead, the people demand the unrealistic.......hmmm......the world is full of shit sometimes....but one thing i like there and india is that gangsters are more afraid of students then the police......coz the gangsters could easily be outnumbered by a whole school.....wakakaka
