Do top leaders or presidents of countries or big corporations and businesses do better economically because they were brought up from a rich family background with wealthy parents or from a poor family background with poor parents?
Or better put, does the financial status of ones family background, that is, does one being born and brought up by rich or poor parents, have a lot to do with how well they do later in life when they attain leadership roles in big corporations and businesses or become the president of a country?
They have the advantage, but it’s not a guarantee that they will turn out to be great leaders. There are rags-to-riches individuals, and these individuals tend to be more responsible due to their past experiences, and they often become more accountable leaders. After all, they understand the problems because they have experienced what it’s like to have nothing.
Character and experience are what mould corporate leaders, and the wealthy do not have the monopoly on this.
