Leaders and Managers

Warren Bennis in "On Becoming a Leader" contrasts leaders and managers as follows:

The Manager administers; the leader innovates.
The Manager is a copy; the leader is an original.
The Manager maintains; the leader develops.
The Manager focuses on systems and structure; the leader focuses on people.
The Manager relies on control; the leader inspires trust.
The Manager accepts reality; the leader investigates it.
The Manager has a short range view; the leader has a long-range perpective.
The Manager asks how and when; the leader asks what and why.
The Manager has his/her eye always on the bottom line; the leader has his/her eye on the horizon.
The Manager imitates; the leader originates.
The Manager accepts the status quo; the leader challenges it.
The Manager is the classic good soldier; the leader is his or her own person.
The Manager does things right; the leader does the right thing.
