Some people inherit leadership positions, such as kings, or nobles, or heads of family businesses. Some are appointed, such as a coach, a city manager, or a den chief. Or they may just happen to be there when a situation arises that demands leadership. A disaster occurs, or a teacher doesn't show up when class begins, or a patrol leader becomes sick on a campout. Try this statement.
Leadership is a gift.
If you are born with it, you can lead. If you are not, you can't. Some people will tell you that. Some really believe it. But it's not so.
