Leader concentrates on relationships .

Boss focuses on hierarchies i.e. " I am above you and I tell you what to do".

A boss creates fear, a leader confidence. A boss fixes blame, a leader corrects mistakes.

A boss knows all, a leader asks questions.

A boss makes work drudgery, a leader makes it interesting.

A boss is interested in himself or herself, a leader is interested in the group.

 

 

 

 

leaders are corporating with other workers to conduct plan.

boss order and push worker to do works

Yes, there are a lot of gaps between a leader and a boss.

1. A person who influences, inspires, supports and encourages a group of individuals, and works continuously on the achievement of goals is a leader but a person who gives orders to employees and behaves in an authoritative way, seeks control and tells his men what to do, is a Boss.

2. A leader fixes the problem, shows what is wrong. But a boss place blame, shows who is wrong.

3. A leader People oriented while a boss profit oriented 

4. A leader Prefers to teach employees but a boss Likes to tell employees.

5. A leader has always Followers but a boss has Employees.

 Leaders are people that are responsible for inspiring, guiding and leading a group of people on a path for a common cause. A boss is a person who is in charge of the work place.The leader is responsible for commanding a group of people, without being pushy and is always considered as a part of the group. He is believed to have features such as innovation, inspiration, guidance, strength, a vision. He is believed to be smart, charming, original, good, etc. A leader should always lead the person in the right direction and is always almost just. A leader is believed to be working for the benefit of the people is a trusting person.Not all bosses are leaders, but they both play an important role in our lives.

A leader is charismatic, leads by example and provides solution to the problem and works as a team member and accepts failure, encourages participation and gives importance to relations and tasks. While boss gives direction but not solution, is mostly tasks orientated and blame external factors for failure and discourage when employee challenges their decisions.
