Fundamentally, a leader must have ability. Ability has two
components: knowledge and skill. Knowledge
is understanding a task. Skill is
proficiency at performing a task. The key to developing knowledge and skill is
repeated exposure. (…) In order to generalize learning to a variety of complex
situations, you as a leader need to have a varied and extensive base of
exposure to related situations. It is this experience that allows you to
develop ability.
In Mountaincraft and
Leadership, the official handbook of the Mountain Leader Training Boards of
the United Kingdom, author Eric Langmuir is quite clear regarding the first
order of business for aspiring leaders: “The chances of becoming an effective
party leader are greatly reduced unless a considerable amount of time is spent
on acquiring experience.” His is an honest and accurate statement.
