A skill set called leadership

Some people are born to lead and some have to be taught to lead. Leadership is about having influence so people can follow you. A leader cannot lead if there are no followers and there can't be followers without a leader.

The influence that a leader has can either be positive or negative. As we know there are great leaders that led people to destruction. Looking at leaders like Stalin, Hitler and Mugabe, these leaders had/have great power to influence their followers.

Leadership is a great skill to have, however there are people who confuse threatening or bullying people with leadership. Followers willingly abide with instructions given by their leaders and believe what their leader is saying to be correct.
