It is debatable whether leadership comes naturally, or one cannot be learned to be a leader. In general, the consensus view seems to be that leadership is one of the individuals’ instincts, which is acquired from any experiences. In my opinion, however, I firmly believe that individuals can earn a sense of leadership and can be a skillful leader for the following subsequent two reasons.
First and foremost, leadership is mainly based on personal relationships and communications. As an example of this, if one who has a sense of leadership from own instinct is isolated from a community, his such ability becomes increasingly decreased. On the other hand, through a variety of relationships, people can enhance their communication skills and leadership. It is possible for individuals to learn and develop their leadership by interacting in a group. To illustrate, when I was an elementary school student, my mother encouraged me to attend a social club at which I learned a valuable interaction and leadership. At that time, I had an ashamed personality and thought that I could not be a successful leader in the future. However, I participated actively in the club and finally I became a leader of a small group that consists of friends similar to my age. By now, I am charging in a leader of an activity club in my university. Without such an experience, I could not have been a successful leader.
In addition, especially, leadership is one of the important skills with regard to individuals’ career in the future since today’s companies tend to prefer people having an extraordinary leadership skill. Because of this, modern schools teach their students leadership skills via interpersonal activities and social courses. For instance, there is a poll conducted by Johns Hopkins University with their 500 students majoring in a social philosophy as participants. The purpose of the survey is to understand the importance of early education in terms of leadership courses. The majority of participants admitted that early education of leadership programs allows children to have valuable communication skills and they could actually take advantages of such skills in their academic performances. An overwhelming 83 percent of respondents said that leadership is not a native ability, but an attainable ability through school’s programs.
In conclusion, taking becoming a successful leader and contemporary school’s social programs into consideration, I strongly believe that leadership is not own ability, but an obtainable skill. Never should we forget that this issue may have a huge impact on our future.
