Born to Lead ?: Some Thoughts on Leaders, Leaders, and Leadership John Wilson

Born to Lead? rests on the major premise that leadership cannot be taught, but, fortunately, most of us can learn how to be a Leader. Without citing management theories, complicated diagrams, or so-called "styles" of leaderships the author tells us what qualities make a Leader. He stresses that the true assessment of a leader comes from the people being led, a novel and refreshing concept. "Anecdotal references" are used to exemplify leadership traits and tools under discussion. This book is a good read and those who care to learn from it can become a Leader (a person who practices leadership in his dealings with people), not just a leader (a person in a supervisory position).
