Continuing Confusion -Are Managers and Leaders Different?

Authors

David Curtis, Governors State University

Abstract

This paper revisits the debate about whether managers and leaders are different It notes the assertion that managers do things right and leaders do the right thing. The paper, then, examines the discussions provided in the leadership literature, and the experiences described by successful executives to test the validity of the previously described claim. Also, this paper provides an alternative view that managing and leading are not as different as commonly asserted.
