Introduction

Leadership incorporates many diverse skills and qualities and for many people it does not come naturally, we’re involved in leadership situations. In some, we may be led by others such as our parents, older siblings or peers. Whereas, in other situations, we may do the leading.  

Leadership may be defined as having the power to exert influence over others. The same situation exists with entrepreneurs – although their focus is to get the best from the staff, they must work together with staff to get the best results.    

Think about any situation where you have been a leader. What were you good at? What were you not so good at? If you have never been a leader, think of someone who has.
