A SKILL SET CALLED LEADERSHIP

                                              
Leadership to my understanding is the ability to direct the affairs of a given group of people in order to achieve a common goal.  Leadership is a skill one is either born with or an acquired skill as the case may be, a good leader leads with; humility, obedience, charisma and patience etc.
Moreover, a person born with the skill to lead, usually leads with the aforementioned qualities that defines a good leader and more, this person is usually the people’s choice, take for example; Nelson Mandela, the way the people celebrate him shows how much of a good leader he was and still is even at present, one who is not afraid of making sacrifices and taking risks for the people and always ready to render selfless service to the people.

Nevertheless, leadership as a skill can be developed with the right knowledge and understanding, although, born leaders are still the best because; wherever they are an ordinary person can spot them out through the charisma they carry along with them even without knowing it.
