What is the difference between leading and managing a project?
The Difference Between Managing and LeadingUnderstanding people will help you make the shift from managing to leading a business. By Stever RobbinsNovember 18, 2002 URL: http://www.entrepreneur.com/management/leadership/article57304.htmlQ: I started my own business this year, making the transition from sales manager to business owner. What's the difference between leading and managing employees? And what does my role as a leader now encompass?A: Leaders are the heart of a business. The essence of leadership means inspiring a group to come together for a common goal. Leaders motivate, console and work with people to keep them bonded and eager to move forward. That means setting a direction, communicating it to everyone who will listen (and probably many who won't) and keeping people psyched when times get tough.Managers are the brains of a business. They establish systems, create rules and operating procedures, and put into place incentive programs and the like. Management, however, is about the business, not the people; the people are important as a way of getting the job done.Most business executives and owners have a mix of management and leadership skills. Both skill sets are necessary to run a successful business (unless it's a very small business with people who naturally mesh very well). Leadership skills provide the direction, while management skills provide the systems that let a company grow with success.Unless you have the luxury of hiring managers and concentrating solely on leadership, you'll still be managing. But now, you must also lead. And, in many ways, your leading-which produces no tangible results-is more important than your managing.Only the top executives can set direction in a company. Setting direction is different from setting goals. A goal is concrete and measurable: "We must sell 10 widgets by next Tuesday." Direction is broader. Leaders set direction with a vision, a mission and operating principles that embody the company's direction and values.For instance, a mission statementfor the imaginary Personal Assistants Inc. company might sound like this: "We free people from life's drudgery, freeing them to live a life of doing only the things they do best." This mission doesn't give measurable goals, but rather points to an overall direction-it gets people excited and moving in one direction. A Personal Assistants employee wouldn't suddenly decide to diversify into heavy farm machinery; it doesn't fit the mission. Yet the mission is broad enough that the company can create a rich set of offerings over many decades. Specific projects and products may come and go, but the mission gives the company an enduring direction.As a business owner, you need to know your business's direction. It might be broad, sweeping and world-shattering. Or it might be smaller and local: "Smith Tailors make our customers look their best in their daily and business lives." But now your job is to set the direction for everyone around you and communicate it well.People sometimes forget a company's direction in the heat of excitement over a new idea or market development. If it happens once or twice, it's not a problem. But too many diversions can cause a company to lose focus and end up serving many different customers, none of them well.Your job is to bring people back to the company direction gently and consistently and always challenge them to evaluate ideas and decisions with respect to the decision. If Personal Assistants proposes asking clients to give 24-hour notice when they have a project, the leader simply asks: Does this help us free clients from drudgery or make more for them? The team can then decide (or even ask customers) whether the suggestion aligns with the mission.Keep in mind that people easily lose sight of the big picture when they get caught up in life's daily details. As leader, you must know how to bring them back and make sure they know the way.There's much more to a business leader's job, but you'll start off on the right foot by developing a direction, aligning your organization behind the common goal and bringing them back when they stray. Setting direction sounds easy, but it requires vigilance and work. And you're the only one who can do it. Pointing the way and rallying the troops forward are two primary responsibilities of a successful leader.As an entrepreneur, technologist, advisor and coach, Stever Robbins seeks out and identifies high-potential start-ups to help them develop the skills, attitudes and capabilities they need to succeed.

What would be the consequences of ignoring policies and procedures?
I depends entirely on the circumstances (which the questioner does not supply). Policies and procedures are not enforceable by statutory law therefore no criminal sanctions can come from it. Other than that it depends on just WHERE the policy and procedures are being applied (e.g.: In the workplace, failing to apply them could result in your dismissal -or- failing to follow them properly could result in your injury or death.) More specific information is needed before a further reply can be attempted.

What would happen if policies were not adhered to?
A "policy" is very much like a decision or a set of decisions, and we "make", "implement" or "carry out" a policy just as we do with decisions. When a company creates a policy its setting up an across company"decision. These policies are normally signed off at the highest level of a company. Policies do have a "shelf life" and should be reviewed on a regular basis. When the business operation is no longer following policy an assessment of the policy is required as is the adopted new decision being used. When polices go in one direction and the operation goes the other confusion occurs and can lead to serious issues. I.e. If a policy states that the business will do X and its actually doing Y and for some reason a serious incident occurs which may have a legal out come then the business will have uncomfortable questions to answer as to why there is not significant control in place.
