What is the difference?

List of differences– 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 manager asks how and when; the leader asks what and why.– The manager has his or her eye always on the bottom line; the leader’s eye is 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 or her own person.– The manager does things right; the leader does the right thing.

One without the other• Leadership without management sets a direction
or vision that others follow, without considering how the new direction is going to be achieved. Other people then have to work hard in the trail that is left behind, picking up the pieces and making it work.
• Management without leadership controls resources to maintain the status quo or ensure things happen according to already-established plans
