Manager or Leader, too?

The key to differentiating between leaders and managers is that they accomplish the business operations in different ways. Often, one person both leads and manages, but that is not always the case.

In the article “What Leaders Do”, Kotter describes three business operations/functions of leaders vs those of managers, namely:

• Setting a Direction vs. Planning & Budgeting
• Aligning People vs. Organizing & Staffing

3.Motivating People vs Controlling & Problem-Solving

Your task is to evaluate your current manager based on the above, providing examples to support your analysis.

In crafting your answer, include headings for each of the three business operations/functions to clearly delineate your analysis for each one.

Remember – citing assigned course materials is encouraged to demonstrate tie-in to concepts covered, but it is not considered outside research for the purposes of our discussion.
