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.
Leadership does take skill.
Not everyone can learn all the skills of leadership as well as anyone else. You don't have to be born with leadership. Chances are, you weren't. But you were born with a brain. If you can learn to swim or play checkers or do math, you can learn leadership skills.
