What is the difference between manager and a leader? What sets them apart?
Every manager should treat themselves as a leader.
i do know what it takes to be a good leader. i also know that i always try to practice the things a leader should have f.g. listen to my team members, listen to their problems, try to keep every one on board and focus. but am a leader or a manager? well you are not a manager if you are not a good leader. i always try to be a good leader and someday it might make me a manager, you know, officially.
Manager is a terminology that can be defined whereas a leader is never termed, it comes from the innerself within. A person with small position in an organisation can bear leadership qualities and so everyone out there admires his quality but a manager can be cursed as well as praised at times if he is also a leader.
In my opinion , managers are trying to reach goals regardless of the used approach and they cannot by considered as role model to their employees , they just apply polices and roles using their work experience .
Leaders always have the first step , they are role models , and have determination to reach organisation goals
I am an innate leader. I thrive in high-pace dynamic environments. My single most important focus in any role has been to enable my entire team to succeed. I make sure that others have the tools, resources, and understanding on how to maximize opportunities and get the most out of every engagement or project. I've had leadership roles where I was challenged to lead large organizations, both by example and hard work. I have an understanding of portfolio strategy and execution, my passion is around organizational culture transformation of highly effective teams. I would love to do this in the UAE and take my experience working in Silicon Valley enterprise organizations and translate that into a different market.
