Without followers a Leader is none, leader leads their followers!. Their must be a group or a class of people who follows the leader with their individual interest on particular field.

Managers instruct their respective teams for any specific goals or objectives generally made by any organisation or company.

Manager always do the higher level of office works like client mails, talk to leaders…etc. But leaders always work with the employees (operators) to motivate them and think how to improve the productivity.

leader play his/her role by being an advanced person who is the head of any institution, but manager always managed the things that are running in the a constitution and also employ workers.
