In higher education, there are various functional units that play important roles in achieving the vision and mission of the institution. Behind the role that they are playing, there are different levels exists in each of it which carry different tasks. Not only serves the faculty, but can serve to other entities which deviates from the routine as an academician.
Eventhough the variety of functional units or entities that existed, I believe the starting point of someone to become a leader or specifically a regular lecturer turning into a figure with high profile is by learnt to lead his or her own students and collegues. Hence, from there the leadership trait is develop and initiate in someone’s career, even we know that some people are born to become a leader, but leadership can be molded to become one.
