According to statistics, 51% of people on earth like to lead people - that is, they dream of acting as leaders. This article will talk about what itmeans to be aleader and what qualities are needed forit. Leadership is a social influence that unites people and motivates them to exert all their strength to achieve a goal. Leaders are followed not because of formal power and authority, but because oftrust and respect. Although this canbemutually exclusiveinsome situations. True leaders in history are politicians, generals and figures who changed the course of life and inspired people to great victories. For example, we can recall the charismatic King Leonidas and his 300 Spartan warriors, who fought against the entire Persian army. But to be a leader, you don’t have to launch a rocket into space: you can also be a leader in a small area of ​ ​ responsibility: a group, faculty, educational institution, student and pupil community are examplesof this. Let’s look at the difference between formal leaders and real leaders. For example, in Ancient Rome, there were slave managers - slaves who monitored the progress of work and controlled their colleagues. They led, but were not leaders capable of managing people. But Spartacus - a gladiator slave with leadership qualities - became a leader. It was he who was able to lead the greatest uprisingofantiquity. In corporations, the role of leader can be performed by one person. But this does not always happen. Here ishowthey differ. Formal leader:  Ensures theperformance of subordinates;  Focuses onrationality and control;  Strivesto maintain corporate structures and work within them;  Is alink inthe management structure;  Cares about thewell-being of employees. page1946 INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE ISSN:2692-5206,ImpactFactor:12,23 AmericanAcademicpublishers,volume05,issue06,2025 Journal: https://www.academicpublishers.org/journals/index.php/ijai Informal leader:  Inspires theteam and colleagues;  Is used to taking risks forinnovation;  In achieving the goal, does not care about maintainingexisting structures;  Provides theopportunityto work freely;  Putstheresult above thepersonal problems oftheteam and his own. The phenomenon of leadership has been of concern to people since ancient times - can people learn to lead in order to change the world, or is it an innate talent? The demand for research on theseissues intensified inthe19thcentury and continues tothisday. Thomas Carlyle formulated the theory of the “great man” in his book “On Heroes, Hero- Worship, and Heroism in History” published in 1841. It was developed in Francis Galton’s 1869 work “Innate Genius”. In his opinion, only people with unique abilities have significantly changed the world: the Prophet Muhammad, Napoleon, Martin Luther, which means that their leadership abilities are innate. Thus, heput forward thepoint ofview that even adozen ordinary physicists together will not repeat the genius Einstein, and several directors together will not replace Tarkovsky. This idea has been criticized and modified several times over the past century. Scientists have tried to formulateand generalizethe characteristicsof real leaders. Research conducted by Ralph Stogdill in1948 and by modern authors such as Stephen Zaccaro, Carey Kemp and Paige Bader in 2004 has shown that this is not so clear. Innate characteristics sometimes help to become a leader, but the theory that much depends on the qualities and skills thatcan be developed, as well as external conditions, is gaining relevance today. Characteristics ofleaders. If we summarize the conclusions of Timothy Djadja in 2002, Brian Hoffman in 2011, David McClennada and Richard Boyatessa in 1982, and Bernard Bass in 1990, the result is a list of qualitiesand skills associated with effectiveleaders.
