Leadership and Education

The topic of this year's International Leadership Conference is “Leadership and Education”.

The topic of this year’s Conference is inspired by eternal dilemma- Are leaders born or are they made? What makes one be a leader? Can leadership be learned, developed? What is the role of education in creating a leader and is it possible to create it anyway?

Some experts agree that leadership, as all skills, can be learned. The principles of leadership remain constant- the literature is clear on the essential components, styles, and dynamics, but can it teach you how to put all the principles into practice, motivate and lead people? Although there are certainly many things that can be learned and developed, there are also some personal characteristics you have to be born with, characteristics that cannot be taught. What are those characteristics that make one become a leader?

By taking a part in International Leadership Conference 2005, you will have a chance to learn and discuss this and many more issues of importance in creating and developing leadership skills.

  • Casual factors of leadership development

  • Leadership values
