Leadership (leaders) who create the motivation for others by sharing positive culture between employees inside the organization , by using words, finance tools, orders , procedures, to create a kind of motivation for some of or all employees inside specific sector inside company

That is a great question. If you think carefully about it, the primary purpose of leadership is to motivate others. But there is more to great leadership than motivation. Leaders inspire long after the initial motivation. And, just as importantly, they teach others the elements of great leadership. Passing on the legacy of leadership is what elevates good leaders to great leaders.

Leadership: A consistent example of rising above any and all circumstances. Leadership is external.

Motivation: The inner knowledge or insight that makes rising above circumstances possible. Motivation comes from within.

Leadership is a skill; Leaders are great mentor, ideal of people, Guide people to attain their goals. Leadership includes motivation.

 

Motivation is a tool, planned managerial process, which stimulates people to work to the best of their capabilities, by providing them with motives, which are based on their unfulfilled needs.

The difference between leadership and motivation, to me, is summed up like this:

Leadership: A consistent example of rising above any and all circumstances. Leadership is external.

Motivation: The inner knowledge or insight that makes rising above circumstances possible. Motivation comes from within.

So, in my opinion, leadership is not about encouraging, pushing or cheering on; it’s about pointing others inward so they recognize that the ability to be motivated rests with them. If you are a parent, for instance, you know that it is virtually impossible to motivate your children to work hard at their studies. But you can lead. You can show your children, by example, that no matter how sick you might get or how difficult your circumstances might appear, you can passionately apply yourself to your own job or projects. Thereby pointing your children inward to their innate ability to rise above any circumstance (and excuse) and crack the books with pride and vigor.

Motivation is the reason that you lead. Your mind conceives an idea which is worthwhile and the you lead peoples and groups towards a common goal
