There is no history of any BOSS accepted by all his team members, but LEADER.

BOSS may have a leader but not the leader had boss.

You may have been promoted to a managerial position and are a “boss” now, but this doesn’t automatically make you a leader. As a manager, you oversee a team of employees, daily tasks and activities, and ensuring the operation is running smoothly. You’re in the hot seat to resolve everyday issues, hold employees accountable, and make sure the job is getting done.

The problem is… most managers are ineffective leaders, which results in unhappy employees and frequent turnover.

So what IS the difference between a boss and a leader? Here are a few examples:

 

1. Leaders lead rather than rule

Leaders are there to lead the team forward and to move together.

2. Leaders listen and speak rather than command

Bosses tend to give orders; they need their employees to listen and to obey. Leaders always listen to the opinions of their colleagues and regard them as important.Leaders are always ready for advising, discussion and any feedback an employee has to offer.

3. Leaders motivate rather than terrify

One of the best things about leaders is that they offer empathy and prepare a group for the tasks at hand. This is very important, seeing as whenever colleagues are not prepared for certain duties, leaders are there to support, teach and back them up. Leaders know that each employee is on the team for a reason and they have faith in every concerted effort.

4. Leaders teach and learn rather than expect and ignore

A true leader is the person who has self-esteem, but who is not arrogant nor embarrassed to learn from those with lower titles. This explains the tendency of leaders to always pay attention to their colleagues, knowing there is always more to  learn from them. Moreover, leaders are not only takers, but givers, as well.

5. Leaders take part rather than stay aside

While bosses choose to stay aside in the job, leaders take initiative. They watch over the progress of work, make adjustments where necessary and aid team members. They choose to be a part of the team.

6. Leaders reprimand rather than scold or shout

When necessary, a leader offers constructive criticism. However, a leader never scolds or shouts at any individual, especially in public. They do understand that they are dealing with people and no one has right to humiliate others. Rather, the leader talks to the person individually and without any spike in temper.

7. Leaders establish equal relationships

Anyone who has ever worked on a team knows what it feels like when the manager chooses his favorites and non-favorites. It always causes stress and tension among team members which compromises productivity.A good leader tries to treat everyone equally and to not allow personal preferences affect the team dynamic.
