Hello Friends,
In general sense, we define 'Management' as the art and science of getting things done. Whereas the term 'Leadership' has a different approach; this is the process of getting people to do their best to achieve a desired result. It involves developing and communicating a vision for the future, motivating people and gaining their engagement.
From time to time, people defined these two terms from different point of view. Some people link leadership closely with the idea of management, some regard the two as synonymous, others consider management a subset of leadership and yet others praise leadership and demonize management.
I’ve attached a table from Armstrong’s Handbook of Management and Leadership which depicts the difference between these two terms most precisely that I have found so far. You also might find it interesting.
Kind regards,
R.K. Rada
