Management skills are a key consideration in organizational leadership, but there’s a difference between being a good manager and being a good leader. All leaders are managers, but not all managers are leaders.
In other words, it’s possible to manage people without ever being a good leader. It’s been said that managers have people who work for them, while leaders have people who follow them. To be effective organizational leader, one must be willing to blaze new trails and lead by example. Organizational leadership philosophy takes a more holistic view than management and focuses on a more transformational leadership style.
