Managers are leaders - Pastence (appointed by themselves) Leaders are not managers - presentence (appointed by others) This is absolutely true, anyone can be a manager but it takes a certain type of individual to be a leader. A great quote I read once states "leaders plan the journey and sell the tickets, managers drive the bus to the destination". In other words, managers carry out work FOR someone else whereas leaders will be creative, have a vision and bring others along with their vision. I have written a couple of articles on leadership versus management and they are listed below this answer.

Answer? Branson is a leader. Leaders are create something out of nothing. Managers, while very important, do not create. They manage what leaders create.
There are many differences between a leader and a manager. While a manager counts value and creates circles of power, leaders create value and create circles of influence. Leaders guide their followers, while managers train and monitor their subordinates.
Not necessarily as their functions are different. Leaders roles include primarily to determine the "WHAT" to do, while managers roles include primarily the "HOW" to do it. Think of a manager as the person that climb to the top of a tree directing the crew down below which tree(s) to cut. Think of the leader as the person with the vision of what to build.
Yes, some managers may not possess leadership skills, but effective leadership qualities are essential for inspiring and motivating teams. Conversely, not all leaders have the necessary skills to manage tasks, budgets, and resources in an organizational setting. It is beneficial for managers to also exhibit strong leadership skills to drive success and achieve team goals.

NO, it has always been confusion as are Leaders and Managers same, but Leader is a person who has the ability to influence people and who makes the people to work his cause by motivating him. A manager is a person who gathers people to work for a common cause, for the benefit of the group. A leader is a born manager , LEADERS ARE BORN, MANAGERS ARE MADE.

A good leader knows what needs to be done and steps out to do it. He may need help in managing the items needed to get the job done.
good
The difference between a manager and a leader is just the hats that they wear, the titles on their doors and the tools that they use in order to get the job done. Supervisor: One who oversees. Manager: One who is in charge. Leader: One who rules or guides or inspires others. Leaders and managers are often the same person wearing a different hat. Often the best managers are so because they are leaders, inspiring and guiding their team when required - especially by example. For any quality initiative to take hold, senior management (who MUST be leaders) must be involved and act as the role models (or, provide leadership). Leadership is just one important component of the function of directing. Sometimes a leader is not required. For example, a group that is self motivated may not require a leader - although even in this case the group members are acting themselves as their own leaders. A leader must lead first by example. A manager uses instruction, enforcement of policy and procedure. A manager cannot just be a leader or else he is not a manager at all. Managers tend to do things right. Leaders tend to do the right thing. Managers think incrementally, leaders think radically. Leaders are predisposed to innovation. Effective leaders control their ego and understand how to use their understanding of people to inspire top performances. They are confident and they have a high self esteem without exhibiting arrogance. Effective leadership can not be driven by ego but good leaders command a certain presence when they enter the room.

There is not just one leader. There are many leaders. Every group of people will have a leader, and there will be leaders who lead the leaders and so on.
