What Researches have to say on ThisBORN (Nature) MADE (Nurture)Some are born with an “extra something,” a trait of tenacity and take-over-ship that makes them “natural born Managers.” Eg Einstien

As with people like Winston Churchill or Franklin Roosevelt, those who exhibit leadership traits early on — even when born into a privileged lifestyle — don’t become leaders by accident. They’re made into leaders, or they make themselves into one.

Born-leaning managers may embrace a dominant and authority-focused approach to Management; they may view asking for many opinions or seeking consensus as weak or ineffective Management

Executives who believe Management are made may prefer a more-collaborative approach; being dominant and focused on rules and formalities may be less effective with them

Management training is three times more effective at teaching knowledge than it is in changing behavior.

Fifty six percent of corporate managers predict shortages in executive-level Managers.

Fourty four percent of companies expect to increase total spending on management development and executive education.Sixty four percent of learning executives say they are focusing on trying to speed up the Management development process.

(Based on 2012 report, "Racing the Clock: Will high potentials be ready to lead in time to meet your need?")

Are Great Managers Made or Born?

The most asked question about Management.

There are dozens of books, decade’s worth of debates and many well-documented studies on the subject of leadership.

Nevertheless, the debate rages on.Therefore, It is a great debate.

against the right wall."

Managerial Effectiveness is neither an ability nor talent. It is a habit, a practice, a self-

discipline that must be learned.”
