 that they learn

 when they grow older. In my opinion, the latter is more crucial because learning and practising can lead us to a better life or to become good
leaders
. It is true that certain individuals are born with distinctive personal traits that can lead to talented

.
People
 who have been charming, persuasive and negotiating since they were young become good

 compared to those who lack these
leadership
 characteristics.
For example
, a child who acted as a lawyer when they played in childhood.
Then
, they would become a president when they are old.

 through proper training and effort.
This
 is because there are many universities all over the world that teach about them and individual coaching appears in some countries. In the universities, they train a person to be a perfect leader.
For instance
, public speaking is one of the
leadership
skills
 and we can learn it details in the universities.
Moreover
, they can guide a person who is shy and lacks confidence to have the essence of good body language, good pronunciation and other elements of good public speaking. In conclusion,
although
 some traits of a good leader may be inherited, we can learn
leadership
skills
 in many places if we have a strong desire to learn them.
Therefore
, in my point of view having special characteristics in childhood is not crucial to becoming a good leader.
