Same leadership concept in HTM students?

            We all might used to have different concepts of leadership a couple of years ago, but as we started taking all the leadership classes for the HTM major it seems that most undergraduates have a similar concept of leadership now. When I was reading all the blogs in order to find one that had a different point of view from mine I just couldn’t find it. We do have different personalities and results in the PMAI, but we all look for similar values in leaders and have the same thoughts about the trait based leadership theory. All the blogs agree that we can use the theory as a guide or to learn more about us, but we don’t believe that leaders are born, like Flora Elman stated  in her blog “ To say a person is born with leadership traits is the same thing as saying a person is born knowing how to ride a bike”. Moreover, I totally agree with Nikki’s post that says “traits such as drive, leadership motivation, self-confidence, cognitive ability, and knowledge of the business illustrate that these are learned traits rather than ones we were simply born with”. As you can see we all agree that leaders are not born and I think it’s great to be thinking that way, otherwise we would be discouraged if we didn’t have the exact number of traits “needed” to be a leader. I believe these classes have been motivating us and setting our mind in positive mode in which today we all believe in ourselves and that we have the capability to be the great leader we have in mind.
