Leadership Task: Write about how to develop leadership qualities. You can write about personal experiences or what you have seen happen in others. What qualities do you think are most important? Do you think everyone has the potential to be a leader? What makes a successful leader? Ideally, leaders become leaders because they have credibility, and because people want to follow them. Leadership is not only about professional life. It can be applied to any situation where you are required to take the lead, and depends on circumstances of particular case every leader has to demonstrate particular set of skills and abilities. I believe that every man and woman can be a good leader, but only few of them can be great. History of the world and modern industry shows to us that people skills, vision of the future, strategical thinking, charisma, drive and belief in a greater cause are the most important qualities required for leaders. Not many people have the essence of leadership, but a lot of us have basic skills that should be developed. Also we should remember that not every leader is the same. You need to choose your own path and follow it no matter what!
