Detailed explanation-1: -Recent scientific studies suggest that leadership is 30% genetic and 70% learned. These findings suggest that leaders are made not born. The answer is that both are true: a person can be born with natural leadership abilities, and someone can learn how to be a good leader in whatever role they hold.
Detailed explanation-2: -The Great Man Theory, popularized in the 1840s by Thomas Carlyle, suggested that leadership traits are intrinsic, meaning that great leaders are born and will emerge when confronted with the appropriate situation.
Detailed explanation-3: -2-Leaders are not born, they are made. Behavioral Theory, however, believes that leadership is something that can be learned. The time needed to learn varies from person to person, but the truth is that with time, experience, willingness and practice, anyone can acquire the skills necessary to become a leader.
