Their are many definitions and theories that attempt to define leadership. Many of these are many words put together to explain the same thing. To put it in the simplest of terms, a leader is someone who guides others to accomplish a specified task. Different people use different leadership styles. This is either naturally or by training. This brings us to another issue people always ask. Are leaders born or do we learn to be leaders? I would say both are correct. Some people are naturally endowed with the abilities to lead others while other people make an effort to learn how to be effective leaders. No matter the case, we can always improve our leadership abilities by consciously making an effort to be better. Leadership is dynamic and different situations and different people will require different skills to lead them. For instance the leadership style used in a military setting is very different to the one used in a corporate setting.
