Leaders are mostly made based off of their experiences and life events. Although some characteristics can be inherited, majority of them are learned. According to '5 Reasons Why Leaders are Made not Born' (2019), one-third of leaders are born and two-thirds are made. To become an effective leader means you need a set of kills which are acquired through experiences based on the same article stated above. The article also states that leaders never stop learning which leads me back to my main point; leaders are built (made) and constantly learn to inspire and grow.

I believe Leaders can be made and born. For instance, Malcolm X, Gandhi, and Chisholm are all amazing leaders that knew the world needed a change and difference.

I also believe they were made into the leaders they were over time by learning, gaining experience, and practicing to become even better leaders. Y.P.

He was acutely conscious of his own imperfections.

Are Leaders Made or Born
One of the most asked questions is whether leaders are made or born when reflecting
on leadership. People may argue that leaders are born since some of their traits come to them
naturally. Moreover, people can perceive leaders to have been born since they developed
leadership skills early in their lives. Despite people seeing leaders as born, some reasons
indicate that leaders are made. This paper will discuss reasons that demonstrate why leaders
are made, not born.
Firstly, leaders are made not born since they are obligated to do the right thing at the
right time. According to Udo...
