Leadership and Management:
a Difference and Synergy
To maximize your long-term success you should
strive to be both a
manager
and a
leader
and to
synergize
their functions. Merely possessing management skills is no longer
sufficient for success as
an executive
in
today's business world. You need to
understand the differences between managing and leading and know how to
integrate the two roles to achieve organizational success. As a manager, you
must make sure that a job gets done, and as a leader, you must care about
and focus on the people who do the job. To integrate management and
leadership, therefore, demands a delicate
balance
between a calculated and logical focus on organizational processes
(management) and
visioning,
energizing employees, and a genuine concern for them as people (leadership).1
