Leadership vs. Management
Leadership and management, though
closely related, have many distinct differences. Leadership itself tends to focus primarily on
long-range goals and a vision for the organization. Management concerns itself more with
day-to-day operations and generally does not look very far ahead in terms of
organizational direction. Traits
associated with both are needed in order for any organization to prosper; and
both may even be possessed by an individual.
A person that exhibits and hones the skills needed for leadership and
management positions will no doubt be indispensable to their organization.
