Transcript of Management vs Leadership
“Management is efficiency in climbing the ladder
of success; Leadership determines whether the
ladder is leaning against the right wall.”
Stephen R. Covey
Management
Management is the process of designing and
maintaining an environment in which individuals
working together in groups, efficiently towards
the accomplishment of targeted goals”
Management
Management deals with the organization of
resources and the planning of actions that
achieve goals effectively.
The focus of management is production, and is
results oriented. – Managers rule with their heads.
Leadership
Leadership deals with the inspiration of human spirit
to achieve great goals. – Leaders rule with their
hearts.
It focuses on people more than product.
The art of getting people to follow and do things.
Leaders/Followers
Leadership is a reciprocal relationship between
those who choose to lead and those who decide
to follow.
The Difference:
The main difference between managers and
leaders is
- the way the two styles motivate people & teams
to achieve objectives.
Managers on the other hand maintain the status
quo, specialising on conformance to the
standard, and managing teams and individuals
around these boundaries that have been set,
organising and directing to achieve the task.
Leaders set the goals and new direction,
challenging the status quo. They are visionaries
and spearhead the team, motivating and
leading them to reach this new direction.
“Effective leadership is putting first things first”.
“Effective management is discipline, carrying it out”
Stephen R. Covey
