people and machines are

whether you want to be or not. You set an example for future

Manager to Leader….
The manager relies on control; the leader inspires trust..
A manager focuses on systems and structure; the leader focuses on people
A manager maintains; the leader develops
The manager has a short-range view; the leader has a long-range perspective...
The manager asks how and when; the leader asks what and why...
The manager has his or her eye on the bottom line; the leader’s eye is on the horizon..
The manager accepts the status quo; the leader challenges it.
The manager imitates; the leader originates.
The manager does things right; the leader does the right thing.
