| Manager
vs. Leader |
The manager administers; the leader innovates. The manager is a
copy; the leader is an original. The manager maintains; the leader
develops. The manager focuses on systems and structure; the leader
focuses on people. The manager relies on control; the leader
inspires trust; The manager has a short-range view; the leader
has a long-range perspective. The managers asks how and when; the
leader asks what and why. Managers have their eyes on the bottom
line; leaders have their eyes on the horizon; The manager imitates;
the leader originates. The manager accepts the status quo; the
leader challenges it. The manager is the classic good soldier;
the leader is his own person. The manager does things right; the
leader does the right thing.
