Like I said in my previous post I am not in a position to make advised comment on Turkish politics. My observation on what a leader should have is a general proposition rather than specific referance to Erdogan. He is your leader and as such I respect him. I am not in a position to approve him or not as I am not Turkish. So please keep me out of the anti or pro Erdogan camp.
However in my view a good leader does NOT by definition need high education. A leader above all else leads people. That is his/her expertise is managing people. That is is the most important asset that there is. As long as a leader can manage human assets he/she can easily have the best experts to give/her advice.
Some of the greatest men in history had NO formal education but they went on to shake the world. I give you some examples. Lord Alan Sugar left school at age 16 and today's runs global companies.
When Sugar was young, his family lived in a council flat. Because of his profuse, curly hair, he was nicknamed "Mop head", a name that he still goes by in the present day.[15] He attended Northwold Primary School and then Brooke House Secondary School in Upper Clapton, Hackney, and made extra money by working at a greengrocers.[15] After leaving school at 16,[16] he worked briefly for the civil service as a statistician at the Ministry of Education. He started selling car aerials and electrical goods out of a van which he had bought with his savings of £50.[17]
