What is the difference between leadership and management?
-
Leaders are visionaries and managers help to implement the leader’s vision. Leaders plan and managers execute their plans. Leadership directs management.
-
Leadership takes us from one place to another whereas management allows us to function where we are. Really in management, there is not movement.
-
Leaders take people where they have not been yet. Managers oversee the work/place where people are now.
-
The difference is being involved in the workload. As a previous manager at Target , I was taught that effective management is excluding myself from the workload as much as possible. In a retail/business setting obviously the most important thing is numbers/sales and the work being completed. In ministry of course we should be more concerned about the well being of others, as we must remember that we are family! One in Christ Jesus, brothers, mothers and sisters to each other just as Jesus called those who followed him and believed in Him his brother, sister and mother.
