DA LI SE LIDERI RAĐAJU ILI SU NAUČENI DA BUDU LIDERI?

Abstract

For many researchers involved in leadership, there has long been a dilemma: whether leaders are born, or whether individuals can learn to be leaders? The author of this paper also deals with these issues. Through a concise presentation of the most important theories of leadership, the author sought to determine why the dilemmas existed. He concludes that leadership is learned, which stems from many theories of leadership, but also practice, because much of the knowledge gained through the study of leadership has been used to train leaders, for their development and advancement. In addition, the views of geneticists indicate that regardless of the influence of genes, the environment has a dominant influence on the formation of personality. Genes only indicate a predisposition for someone to be a leader, and whether they will be a leader, depends on how much he is motivated by factors from the external environment.
