Management and Leadership

They're two different things, aren't they?

Management can be quite tactical. It can be primarily about execution, and about managing things.

But leadership is about having vision. It transcends managing things, and becomes about managing people. Not just managing, but motivating and inspiring people. That's leadership.

Too often, we think about management and leadership as the same thing. But they're quite different. Great managers aren't always great leaders. Great leaders aren't always great managers.

Each of our businesses need both.

Which are you? Are you one or the other? Are you both? Are you either?
