Leadership is a quality which is naturally present and to some extent gets inculcated in a person from the surroundings and the environment in which he or she lives. This is a qualitative aspect which can only be improved(not wholly inculcated) by studying in the B-schools. The eminent personalities like J.R.D Tata, Dhirubhai Ambani etc were great leaders as they had in-born talent to lead others.
Leaders are born not made.

I do accept that leader is born. Amey you are right, Mr. Dhirubhai Ambani sends his sons to management schools but 'they are his sons' whose father is a great leader and he wins heart of human. He send his both sons to polish his leadership quality.

leaders are only as good as the situations they face, so these business schools create these simulated situation for the budding leaders which is good.
some are saying people like Dhirubhai Ambani never went for formal training but one should consider that both his sons went to top management schools in the world to become successful leaders.

People take birth with different interest and attitudes. It is fortunate for the people who take birth with leadership qualities but it is not necessary that they would perform well as it is all about courage, confidence, motivating skills and circumstances which an individual faces through his/her life. It is also a real fact that each man possess same things difference is just in way of thinking and interest. No doubt business schools try to emerge leadership qualities in a man to its best.

But it is all about the theoretical knowledge and some amount of practical experience which are imparted by the business schools. The real field is something different. A true leader is on who is dynamic, confident, positive and who doesn't moves back in any kind of situation. Being confident may be inborn but tackling the situation is to be learnt from the circumstances. Surely business schools produce big leaders but the basic nature of man never changes.

Through B-schools one can only improvise his knowledge and leadership qualities to deal with problems. It is not that a perfect leader is made by the B-schools. Leadership quality in a person is developed by his own experience in the society and his nature to deal with the things.

Leaders are not made in business schools. Leader would have punctuality, friendly nature, mingle nature, and good communication with others. These qualities are required for business schools. Leaders are not born. Leaders are created by themselves.

Leadership is an individual is not related to studied because some big leaders are not studied in schools he is only studied for life so he success his career.

Leadership is a property those who face all the difficult situations in their life while doing some social services and when he is positioned to do work for the country. For ex when he/she is positioned in government services.

Leadership is in every individual, but the question is who realizes it at the deciding situation. Even a born leader can fail and a studied leader can fail. But the leader in yourself can never fail. Trust yourself and be LEADER.
