The result of a good management cannot be achieved without leadership leadership is the art behind management's ability to get the best of their teams

We can make Managers but Leaders are bron with qualities.

Again: To me first thing is to be "Better Human being" Which can lead to great management

Leaders can not be developed.

Leaders can be good managers but managers need not necessarily be good leaders. Managers are specifically in charge of a department or a team while a leaders role is wider and encompassing. A leader has to lead by example and has to motivate people through actions while managers act on specifics.

 

Managers do just what they are called for - manage a situation while leaders manage, organise and carry forward to the next level.

All effective leaders have developed good management practices. As such, good management and effective leadership are essential to successfully accomplish all goals. 

 

'Management' is focused on Structure. 

'Leadership' is focused on People. 

 

'Management' is focused on controlling resources. 

'Leadership' is focused on empowering people. 

 

Managers Plan, Organize, Direct & Control. 

Leaders Inspire, Motivate, and unleash Team Energy.

Management is the art of planning, organising, commanding, coordinating and controlling organizational activities towards desired goal acquired mostly from training and development. Leadership on the other hand is the art of getting things done willingly by others mostly erupting from natural charisma that creates the environment for self motivation, sense of belonging and purpose.  

Manager can be anyone with experience in same domain. But Leader is someone who can change the direction of organization.

In a nutshell leadership is the bigger picture as compared management.

1. Leadership will include vision and selling of this vision to others. As soon as the vision is sold and there are takers, then management is comes in.

2. Leadership means taking bigger risk in the perfection of a concept, idea or belief while management will work towards reducing to eliminating of this risk.

3. Leadership will bank on strong belief and conviction while management will bank on skills.

4. Leadership is an art management is a science.

5. Leaders are most often managers rolled into one while managers are most of the time not leaders.

Management is a system which helps the company to implement proper handling of manpower or process to achieve its objective. 

Leadership is a skill and the ability to motivate its member to achieve the company's goal in time.

A leader invents or innovates while a manager organizes

A manager relies on control whereas a leader inspires trust

A leader asks the questions “what” and “why whereas a manager leans more towards the questions “how” and “when.
