Who can take the most important decision effectively & quickly - Leader or Manager?

Thanks Mr Omar for invitation:

In most cases: He is leader 

On June th I published the following post on LINKEDIN,called...The Judas goat... a Judas goat is a well-trained goat used in general animal herding. The goat is trained to associate with sheep or cattle, leading them to a specific destination, and should the goat be trained to walk on water, the rest will follow. To be an excellent leader you  need three core trademarks; Cognitive understanding to understand the problems, situations and decisions your employees are facing. Affective understanding for them to know that you feel what they feel and lastly motivational understanding. Yes, a leader or manager who understands what drives the bottom line is valuable. Yet it’s the leader who can get others to perform at their best who ultimately creates winning organizations is valuable, but the leader who understands the art of leading others to deliberately create a result that wouldn’t have happened otherwise is an excellent leader. Anyone can become a manager and make quick effective decisions.But I would confidently say that the outcome would be fairly different ...

Managers are also leaders - so both of them. In my experience as both team leader and a manager I have taken a lot of important decisions - some of them I needed to take quickly. When in doubt I have always followed my intuition and gut feeling. Often I have asked for advice from my manager. There were times when I have asked for advice my team members. Both leaders and managers must have confidence in themselves and their decisions. They also must be open to make mistakes, learn from them and move forward.

A leader is the inspiration and director of the action, A leader is a person in the group who has a combination of personality and skills that make others want to follow him/her, leaders will have the vision and ability to influence, motivate and enable others in the group to contribute towards the organizational goal/success, Leaders are always people oriented and high-risk takers.

A Manager is an individual who is in charge of a certain group of task, or a certain subset of the company, A manager is responsible for planning, directing and monitoring the work of group of individuals and take corrective measures when needed, Managers always tend to seek for short term results and delegate their responsibilities, Managers are goal oriented and avoid taking risk.

All the leaders are not the managers , nor all the managers are not leaders. however, it is important for a manager to acquire  leadership skills to be successful in this competitive business environment.

As per my point of view, I would say Leader is the best person who can take the most important decision effectively and quickly because leaders understand how to balance emotion with reason and make decisions that would positively impact themselves, their employees, their customers and stakeholders, and their organizations. Since leaders are risk takers he/she will also know when to move quickly and proceed with the available information.

 As it is well said that leaders do the right things and mangers do the things right.

Leaders are able to take decisions more effectively and more quickly than other persons. By the way, an efficient manager is also a leader in his domain.

Thanks

Mostly the  leader , due to his - her strategic planing 

Manager should possess leadership skills, it's a combination of both of them.

Good manager is a good leader and good leader needs management skills to be effective.

Why is it so important for managers to have these leadership skills?

It is because you can not take decision without that decision to be capable of being implemented, whether on a personal or organisational level. You do, therefore, need to be committed to the decision personally, and be able to persuade others and to make them to follow you.

It depends on the type of decision, sometimes only the board of directors can take this action. But I think a leader can take an effective decision. 

Obviously Leader. Thanks....................

Great leaders apprehend how to balance emotion with purpose and make decisions that positively impact themselves, their employees, their clients and stakeholders, and their businesses. Making accurate decisions in difficult conditions is not any small feat due to the fact those forms of selections involve change, uncertainty, anxiety, stress, and sometimes the negative reactions of others.

Fantastic leaders additionally know while to transport quick and continue with the to be had statistics, versus while to take more time and acquire additional facts. whilst leaders choose to pursue extra information or avenues, they should additionally know while to forestall. at the same time as a massive amount of statistics may be applicable in a great international, the information gathering process can make use of too much time, and the extensive amount of records also can be paralyzing and take attention away from the massive picture or key information points.

In my opinion, it's not really about the role, but about the person. Both good leaders and good managers can be effective and immediate in their decision making process.

A leader can be more flexible than a manager, since the manager is strongly focused on managing his/her subordinates and is more result-oriented within his/her boundaries of operations, while the leader has already gained the full support of his/her team and enjoys more freedom of movement.

As a result, a leader has more flexibility in the way he/she operates, allowing him/her to develop more effective decision making skills.

After all, a leader can be a manager, but a manager is not neccessarily a leader.
