And the answer is…….”

Once again it’s happened. Another high level executive has been fired from a corporation for lack of fit. Not lack of performance, but lack of fit.

But let me start at the beginning. There has been a lot of discussion over the years about whether leaders are born or made. Some swear that people are either born leaders or they’re not. There are others who would alternately swear that leaders are made. And both groups can provide ample examples of people who either are born leaders or are made leaders.

So what’s the truth? Do I even dare to tell you that I believe I know the answer?

The answer is “both”. Some leaders are born and some are made. Whether a leader is born or made is not so much a function of the person, instead it is more a function of the “relationship” between the person and the situation. How’s that?

Let me explain!

Leadership, the kind that is recognized as leadership by others, is a specific behavior in relation to a specific situation such that the leader is seen as moving others into the future in a way that seems unknown to those being lead and perhaps even to the one leading. There you have it. A beautiful, concise, real definition of leadership!

Now let’s take the next step. If leadership is a behavior in relation to a situation, how might leadership show up? It can first show up as it has in historical terms for the most part. A person has a specific way of moving through the world, (i.e., behavior) and that behavior doesn’t fit the situation very well. Under these conditions the person who would be leader looks for all intents and purposes as a miss-fit. Not a leader. Not very much of anything.

And then the situation shifts. The circumstances are different. The would-be leader continues to behave as before, but now the situation has changed so that it perfectly matches the would-be leaders behaviors. Now all those around look at the person and exclaim “Here is our leader! He/she has been with us all the time!” Under these conditions it looks like the leader was a born leader. They were a leader all along. There is nothing for them to “become”. Under these conditions leadership looks like it is a natural gift. Winston Churchill falls into this category. And there are many others. People who look at this situation conclude that leadership is a born trait.

Now lets look at the other side of the coin. The alternative to the “born leader” is the leader that emerges into a situation that doesn't necessarily change to fit them, but they change to fit the situation. Under these circumstances the leader will mold and adjust to fit the leadership requirements of the specific circumstances. An example of this kind of leader was Dwight Eisenhower. People who look at this situation conclude that leadership is a learned trait.

Lets bring all this talk up to the present time. I’ll give you two examples of present-day business people who fit each of these categories. This is important….

How can you be an SFI team leader if you are not a born leader?

My answer is based on how I interpret your question.

A 'Born Leader' is a term used to describe certain types of leaders. Persons who have a natural ability to take the lead while others naturally follow them. These leaders become innovators in the leadership world; those who are guided by them become successful and learn be good leaders themselves.

Unfortunately, these leaders can be found elsewhere and not at SFI.

There are many good SFI sponsors who are doing a great job as leaders. They have acquired and applied certain leadership skills either from previous positions or from SFI. It is possible for anyone to become such a leader at SFI. Some will have to learn more than others.

Keeping on learning and brainstorming. Use the tools and resources to be a good leader.

Hi Gabriela.

I once asked the chairman of a company I worked for about leadership and success. He told me that a willingness to learn, determination and persistence was 90 per cent of success as most of the skills could be learned.

Another large corporation I worked for regularly held training sessions for those moving into management as most management skills can be learned.

By learning the skills set out in the various SFI trainings and combining them with persistence and determination you will be an awesome leader.

Leaders are born not at birth but in the learning.

SFI training gives you step by step directions on how to be a great sponsor/cosponsor.

If you can follow directions and learn from your mistakes, you can become a skilled team leader in SFI. Just read everything and apply what you have learned. You will need to keep track of what's working and what is not working and adjust as needed.

As you find small successes you will gain confidence. Before you know it you'll be a team leader and advising your movers in how to do the same.

All the best!

That is a very important question.

This is what I believe and it is not an answer for answering sake. Leaders are NOT born they are made. They are made through experience in business and life. They usually do not recognize themselves as a leader, but they have the passion, drive and determination that is necessary to succeed. In this case the sfi training we go through the forums etc. that is our training ground.

When we pass through those areas we are being made into a leader. A good leader has a mentor, that person is a sponsor, co-sponsor or a2a member that can give direction, support and encouragement. All of this puts us in a position to lead a team by those same experience we get marketing, blogging, websites that being passed on as duplication brings more leaders as ourselves.

How can you be an SFI Team Leader if you are not a born leader?

I like that question, except there is one flawed way of thinking with it... It is assumed, by that question, that leadership is a born quality. If leadership is a born quality, then only those select few would have been given special advantages over the rest of us. That would mean that leadership is reserved for the lucky few.

Leadership is either birthed or learned. In some cases, it can also just be acquired.

If you are an SFI Team Leader, then it is obvious that you are a "leader." The question of whether you were born with leadership is irrelevant. Whether you were born with it, learned it, acquired it, or stole it... the truth is - Leadership is now yours!!!

I have noted that many answers are stating that no one is born to leadership and that it is a learned skill. This is both true, and untrue. I believe that some people are more prone to have leadership qualities than others which is possible where the saying "Born Leader" comes from.

Not having natural leadership skills will not necessarily mean that you cannot lead. The most important thing is to have a great deal of knowledge about the area in which you are being a leader. Even someone with great inborn leadership will falter if they have no knowledge.

If this is your concern I would suggest you take advantage of the mass of reading material available to you. Become an expert in your field and you will find that others will look to you for advice and guidance. If you apply what you have learned to your own business, you will soon begin to wonder why you ever doubted yourself.

Good luck and may all your goals become your milestones

This is indeed a very good question. It is as good as asking if leaders are born or made.
To say the truth, leaders are not born as some people may think. Leadership basically depends on exposure, training and self drive towards showing others the way. It is a quality that can start showing up right from a very early age. Even in a home of several siblings sired by same parents, you may find one or two children with leadership qualities depending on their own conducts.
Turning on to sfi platform, there are tons and tons of opportunities of becoming leaders and the training program towards that end is superb. You only need to take a keen interest to learn and put the training so acquired to practice right on the same site.
I hope my answer has assisted you.
