I believe that Leadership fosters creativity and encourages new ideas, while management prioritizes efficiency and streamlining operations. Leadership is more hands on with the team, they set a direction, help people understand it, and create conditions for them to act and make things happen while building genuine connections. Some qualities and skills for leadership are understanding of what needs to change and knack for encouraging participation. Leaders must exude confidence, kindness, openness, and rationality in equal measure. As for management I feel they are more about numbers and strategy, management is about efficiency and effectiveness. For example the manager creates a team and makes decisions about pay, placement, and promotion and communicate roles and responsibilities clearly to all. Management deals more with setting targets and yardsticks and analyzes and communicates performance. Both leaders and managers make a valuable contribution to an organization even though the contribution is different. Leaders advocate change and new approaches, looking for new ideas while Managers focus on stability and maintain the status quo
