LEADERSHIP VS. MANAGEMENT

"The people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want, and if they can't find them, make them." George Bernard Shaw 

LEADERSHIPAdministrators are cheap and easy to find and cheap to keep. Leaders—risk takers: 

they are in very short supply. And ones with vision are pure gold. -Raymond Smith

A strategy is only as good as the vision that guides it. -Burt Nanus

• Ability to lead, guidance, leaders, OFFICER or POSITION.

• The ability to obtain followers through INFLUENCE.

MANAGEMENTBy legitimizing the diversity of a multidimensional organization, management creates the core of an organization flexible enough to respond to environmental change. –Charles Bartlett

• It is the process of assuring that the program and objectives of the organizations are implemented as planned.

• Administration of business, skills in handling or using something, handling of something successfully.

1. Management is working in the system; Leadership is working on the System. Managers gain authority by position; Leaders gains it by influence and character. Management is reaching goals; Leadership is fulfilling a vision. Management cares about efficiency; Leadership is concerned with effectiveness. 2. A great manager is a tactician, capable of planning his next three moves, and contingencies for each. A great leader is someone who is capable of seeing the field, articulating the goals, weighing the tactics against these goals, and being so human and approachable that people want to crawl across broken glass to accomplish them. They are not mutually exclusive; but are certainly rare in combination.3. You manage tasks, but you lead people.

LEADER VS. MANAGERA LOOK INTO WHO YOU ARE…

LEADER• Provide vision and motivates people• Goal-oriented• Inspiring others to do better work is

the accomplishment of a LEADER.

MANAGER• Make sure things happen through

other people• Task-oriented• Making sure the work is done by

others is the accomplishment of a MANAGER.

1. A manager get things done via planning and delegation. Tasks are assigned and results are obtained via others efforts. A leader get things done by holding a vision, modeling behaviors and inspiring action2. Good Managers do what it takes to make the Leader look good. And a Good Leader hires the type of Manager that understands that.3. A person working on his vision is a leader, else he becomes a manager to fulfill a leader's vision.4. To be a manager simply requires that you have a title and some employees. Maybe a budget. But . . . To be a leader requires followers.5. Peter Drucker said "Management is doing things right; leadership is doing the right things. "

Leaders: Pursue opportunities. Managers: Reduce risks. Synergy: Strategic Achievements

Leaders seize opportunities; Managers avert threats. Both together progress more.

Leaders amplify strengths; Managers reduce weaknesses. Both together develop more

MANAGING YOUR LEADERSHIP

CONCLUSION

We can conclude that..

Leadership and management are categorically different and similar. Leader managers are possible. Principles, factors, and ingredients do not teach us but remind us of

details which we might not take into attention or forget to consider. Leaders talk of vision, managers of task completion. Leaders need managers for output, managers need leaders for direction. Leadership is acquired from those who have gone before us.

Management is learned by being a worker and later a manager. Followers are the best leaders. Workers are the best managers. We can have the best of both worlds.
