What is the difference between management and leadership?

[Gandiba1]

There is really no difference between the two at all as they are all valuable skills that enable an individual to be able to manage other people and ensure that they do what is expected of them.

 

[Alogakho Esson]

Management is a act of accepting responsibility and leaving a legacy with goal and Target everyone is a manager in this life, leadership is a maintenance of status core of responsibility to represent a organization or people to achieve goal and positive response in result making

 

[Syldan]

There is a great similarities between leadership and management to some extent leadership comprises of all inclusive of management and management is just a quality of a leadership.

 

[Setho]

Leadership is when you are directly controlling what everybody is going to be doing in order to achieve goals while management is just you trying to foresee that they are doing the right thing.

 

[Sotherefore]

Management of anything deals with the ability to organise the smooth running of a business or responsibility. A managers sometimes are professionals in their areas of concentration but leaders can be anyone. Most especially the oldest.

 

[Sincerem]

Both of them deal with coordination of people to achieve a common goal of interest. But I believe a manager is more advanced than leaders because a leader can just be anyone. Sometimes it will require academic qualification to be a complete manager.

 

[Chibson]

Management has to do with the overall seeing of an organization noting and seeing that it is coordinated, planned, financed effectively while leadership has to do with one's personal attribute to control a particular group of people to do as he instructs.

Probably, when you are a manager in a business you will be overseeing the overall activities in the business and you will have the ability to tell people what to do and what not to do. But leadership is quite different because it is inbuilt. When you are a good leader you will be able to lead by example and therefore people will imitate you.

may be, There's a manager in a office and a number of pioneers who work with their groups in assisting the association within the achievement of their objectives. Numerous times supervisors play the part of a pioneer as well, at the request of the association. So they both go side by side as a complement to each other.

Leadership is when you are directly controlling what everybody is going to be doing in order to achieve goals while management is just you trying to foresee that they are doing the right thing.

You are definitely right , but in my own opinion , management and leadership are actually the same thing , because we are talking about the skill here , management skills means you must have the ability to manage a business as a leader.

 

[Syldan]

Personally I think leadership and management depends on the attitude and behaviour of the person in question. leadership has to do with directing, encouraging and lot more so also management has to do with responsibility on behalf of the business owner.

 

[Lens]

Management and leadership have more or less the same and the words could be used interchangeably. This is one of the major reason why I believed that, they perform the same function.

There's actually a slight difference between the two. A manager pays a close attention on how things are being carried out in an organisation and immediately correct any deviation while a leader acts as the head of a company who has the final say.

What is the difference between management and leadership?

I think the difference, is that if you manage, you only get people willing to do only the bare minimum of their job. Someone with leadership qualities will do their best to help encourage people to do more than the bare minimum, and perhaps even seek to go above and beyond.

Management consists of controlling a group or a set of entities to accomplish a goal.

Leadership refers to an individual's ability to influence, motivate, and enable others to contribute toward organizational success.

One of the things that actually differentiate a peron who has a good management quality and exhibits it at what they do is that they do that in operational basis,they can acheive results based on sets rules,but a leader will go a step forther to incorporate both emotional intelligence and other factor to boost productivity.

I quite agree with your assertion. Someone who has good management skills can always manage any situation in order to achieve positive results. In leadership you need to incorporate your own rules and regulations in order to do very well. But for you to excel you need to have both leadership and management qualities.

Yes definitelly both are very important,but one of the thing that differentiate the leader from a manager,is that in management his role is in the form of monotaneous and fixed,a routine activity based on procedure,but a leader is intuitive and comes up with a strategy based on issues at hand.

Definitely, a management roles and responsibilities are fixed and monotonous as you have stated. In some cases they are laid down rules and procedures that should be followed for some period of time depending on the kind of business you are working for.

 

[Shigobad20201]

A management skill is the skill needed to manage a business as a manager , taking care of the affairs of the organisation and also a leadership only need to lead .

 

[Smiles20]

Management is a system where you are going to be overseeing a particular type of people or events while leadership is when you are going to be in charge of them and their daily activities.

 

[Danny4cash]

Managing and leading are very similar. Managing people means you help them to right decision. You guide them and keep track of what is happening to them them. Leadership, however, means to lead people. A leader can comfort and the same time whip his followers. A leader need to a management skill, while a manager doesn't necessarily need leadership skills.
