Managing and Leading
The majority of research on leadership focuses on the executive levels: chief executive officers, presidents, and the array of highest level executives in the various staff and operating units. While I may refer to these top level executives occasionally, I consider managing and leading by Managers and the Individual Professional Contributors IPCs). Each of these two groups fulfills different managing and leading purposes.
Warren Bennis, Peter Drucker and John Kotter have researched and discussed the topic of leadership for many years and recognize that it’s the most studied and least understood topic in the social sciences. Warren Bennis emphasises that leadership must be endemic to the organization. He went on to cite a series differences between leaders and managers placing managers at one end of a continuum, and leaders at the other end of the continuum. As an example: In On Becoming a Manager, Bennis1 provided twelve specific differences between the manager and the leader.
