10 simple reasons a manager is not a leader.
Managers are not leaders; here are the differences.
1. Leaders serve; managers control;
2. Leaders disrupt; managers perpetuate;
3. Leaders help; managers order;
4. Leaders empower; managers restrict;
5. Leaders feel; managers are mechanized;
6. Leaders create; managers benchmark;
7. Leaders translate; managers assume;
8. Leaders are passionate; managers are conservative;
9. Leaders experiment; managers conform;
10. Leaders are loose; managers are tight.
Each role is extremely important in any organization
But the two are often confused with one another.
They shouldn’t be. They are distinct.
And don’t assume your best manager has the capability to be a stand-out leader.
It’s probably not going to happen.
Cheers,
Roy
