People, in general, want to be led, but they need to be managed. Leadership and management can often be confused with the same task, and while they complement each other, they do not constitute the same skill set. Leadership is the ability to clarify vision, help others achieve their goals, and develop and inspire people in the organization. Management, on the other hand, is the ability to ensure that tasks are completed, controlled, and monitored to manage the organization effectively. Both can be done without the other, as in the case where a person can be a good manager but not a good leader, or can be a good leader but not a good manager. However, it is the coercion of the two that helps an organization thrive. (Kotterman, J., 2006, p. 13) Leadership, like anything else, can be a taught skill. Not everyone is born a leader, but they could be placed in a managerial position by forcing them to acquire leadership skills. The five behaviors that great leaders have and that aspiring leaders should learn to do are: challenge the process, inspire a shared vision, empower others to act, model the way, and encourage the heart. (Bateman, T. and Snell, S., 2013, p. 230-231). If these behaviors were adopted well and genuinely, it would not be difficult to influence the organization and convince people to do their best work. Management without leadership may struggle to get people to give their best effort or work due to a lack of inspiration and vision. Vision allows people to see the light at the end of the tunnel. An organization that has a clear vision enables its people to go beyond expectations, give input they would not normally be able to give, and motivate them to achieve that vision for... middle of paper... ....community of place. Transformational leaders are normally charismatic, very personal and transparent with the organization. Like most management tactics, it is best to use a mix of both leadership styles to be most effective. Overall, management is a skill set that can be done without leadership, however effectiveness may be compromised without it. Often people are placed in management positions because of their technical skills, but lack leadership skills. Managers must, and are capable of, learning to lead. (Nelson, T.S., 2005, p. 93). Leadership is critical in all areas of management and should be evident in the organization. Leadership allows the organization to gain vision and stability through means not provided by pure management. Therefore, the mix of management and leadership is what will truly lead to success in the organization.
