Are Leaders Born Or Made?

Ithas been argued that leaders born


while other schools of thought argue
that leaders are made.
 Whichever the case, the training
of leaders whether born or not gives
them skills that help them to
become better leaders or managers.
 To increase our leadership ability means that we must
expand ourselves.
 Leadership development is personal development.
 In order for us to understand ourselves, we must gather
information; we must obtain the facts and data that tell us
about ourselves.
 For individuals to maximize potential they must begin to
think of leadership in place of management, of
accountability in place of responsibility; job roles in place of
job descriptions.
Leadership differs from management in
that it:

Ensures that processes and procedures,


staff, and other resources are used in an
effective (correct) and efficient
(correctly) manner
 It organizes the internal parts of the
organization to implement systems and
coordinate resources to produce reliable
performance

achieving the goals of the organisation

contains three common elements:

WHY STUDY MANAGEMENT

 Twomajor ones are:


 Our society depends on specialised
health and health related institutions and
organisations that provide the goods and
services we desire.

managers.

create must encourage efficiency,
effectiveness, innovation and optimal
performance
