People lead others when they feel like they will have a good influence and they feel they have good leadership and good followers. Leadership also comes with power so if you have power you usually lead. Take the olden days for example, Alexander the great was just 19 when his father died and he gained power. When you look at a 19 year old you don’t think of a massive leader. So leadership really isn’t defined by age it can be but usually isn’t. Power usually influences leadership if you have power like the 19 year old king alexander the great then you have loyal followers and your set to be a leader. Now as I was saying age can influence leadership such as your mother and father. Your mother and father are older then you and have leadership over you when they say to do something like clean up your room you have to do it because they are in charge. Also, popularity can influence leadership if you are popular among a people they will most likely follow what you say and do what you do thus making you a leader. Leadership really only needs people that want to be leaded and will follow what they are led to do. But being a leader is very different from the fact of being a good leader. You can have a leader with the most followers most power and he can be a bad leader. The difference between the two are the choices they make as leaders.
