While it is true that some individuals posses what is referred to as born leadership abilities, there are others who achieve this through education.
Perhaps some of us can think back to a few classmates some may have described as precocious; they were perhaps the head of the class or exhibited some type of characteristic or quality that other kids wanted to emulate. On the other hand, there were the quiet ones that were virtually unknown. The reality is that some of these then "quiet unknown" kids are now leaders in their field and the way they achieved this is through education and perhaps having encouragement from others.
This concept applies to SFI as well. Look at the wealth of information that SFI makes available to us all. One of the recommendations is that new affiliates not be in a rush and take their time to learn all the aspects of this program. By doing this we are able to respond to questions, implement strategies and in essence lead our team effectively. Of course it never hurts to have someone who is in your corner offering encouragement and keeping you positive so that you can impart the same positivity to your team.
