The other day a woman told me that she sees definite leadership traitsin her son. I asked her how old he was. "Six," she replied. Too young to have been through any leadership training. So are leaders born or made? The answer is both. The problem is that we often get fuzzy about what can and cannot betaught, and at the heart of the fuzziness is the difference between talent and skill. Talent is what we do well naturally. It is our bent. Talents are inborn, and can be discovered and developed. They cannot be taught. However,skills can. Skills are simply how to do something. They are learned and transferable. When we confuse talent and skill, we set ourselvesup for disappointing expectations from training. What does this have to do with developing leaders? Everything. For example, the ability to create vision and strategy is a key leadership trait. Some people have a talent for it. They do it naturallyand continually. Others don’t. Both can learn some skills that will help them...
