ABSTRACT

It is useful to consider the differences between leadership and management in order to determine how best to perform as a leader and not just as a manager. Leaders achieve success because:

They are innovators while managers are administrators.

They look toward the future while managers have a short-range view.

They challenge the status quo while managers accept it.

They do the right things while managers do things right.

They have their eyes on the horizon while managers are looking at the bottom line.
