What is the difference between management and leadership?

A leadership role is when you are the one controlling all the affairs of the organisation with their responsibility, while a management means you are controlling a certain part of the organisation

The difference between leadership and management is not something too far from each other even though a manager can also be refer to as a leader in some organisations but in some a leader can be considered as the entrepreneur while a manager is that who is employed by the entrepreneur to direct the affairs of an organisation.
 
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.
I believe that management consists of controlling a group or a set of people to accomplish a goal while leadership refers to an individual's ability to influence, motivate, and enable others to contribute toward the success of the organization.

A management and a leadership in business is closely related to each other in terms of running a business . A manager is the person who manages the affairs of the day in day out of the business
 
Well, to be honest I think they are interwoven, to be a good leader you need to be a good manager and be able to manage and lead people efficiently.

This is something that I also agree to very well because before you can be able to lead, you will have to have been involved in management as well so that you will know exactly how to lead the people you are managing.
 
while management focuses on the efficient execution of tasks and the coordination of resources, leadership encompasses inspiring, guiding, and influencing others to achieve a common vision. Both management and leadership are essential for the success of an organization, and effective managers often demonstrate leadership qualities, while effective leaders may possess management skills.

The same way being very good with management in a business is very important is the same way being very good in leadership is also important to the success of your business because one of them can never be is excluded whenever you are looking to see your business grow.

Leaders are the one who lead people. So, I think that they hold a very important position and authority in the organisation. This is quite important because being a leader, you are responsible for people who work under you. Leader is also answerable to many seniors as well.

This is the reason why I believe that both of them are something that is very important for the survival of any business because without having both of them, there are certain sectors of the business that is going to face serious challenges.

Leaders are usually appointed by the managers. The fact of the matter remains that leaders are the ones who are accountable to the managers. Appointing a leader usually removes some burdens from manager's shoulder. A manager could appoint any leader at his own discretion.

It is actually something that works hand-in-hand because a manager can equally be a leader and also a leader on the other hand can also be a manager. This is why whatever that happens in a business, someone who is in that position we must possess both qualities.

Well, I think that both terms or roles could be interchangeable, but they are not necessarily the same. I have worked in a place where a manager was superior to leaders. In fact, he was the one who used to make a team and appoint a leader for a specific kind of team.

As long as the person who is leading the role that is been appointed to him in any kind of business organisation or a company does it adequately, it is the most crucial thing that is going to ensure their business success.

Managers and leaders could play different roles in an organisations. In many places, being a leader may simply be a privilege and it may not necessarily be an official position offered by the organisation in the first place.

A manager can equally be a leader in a company or a business in which he is expected to see through everything that is being done in the business management and activities to make sure that all the business goals are achieved.
