A skill set called leadership

My sister always told me that leadership starts now. It is set in the decisions that we make, the manner in which we carry ourselves, and how we deal with others in managing our situations.

I believe that I am a leader, today and developing my set of skills such as communication, the art of persuasion, control, emotional intelligence, and of utmost importance understanding people whose cultures differ to mine. I have to empowering myself with knowledge, to deal with them effectively and to show respect at all times. I aim to develop my set of skills to understand the world and become knowledgeable. It is of great importance that leaders are knowledgeable and well informed to lead. I practice leadership through sharpening my skills in everyday tasks, by doing activities such as forecasting, control, and executing tasks as planned.

To be a leader, your skill set needs to be well developed, or you will not be recognized as someone who is able to manage and lead. You will not be effective and no example to many. It is therefore important to sharpen our skill as the better we improve, our leadership qualities will show signs of improvement as well.
