I have learned that you can be an excellent leader but with weak managesr no company is successful. I also discoveerd skills a leader and manager have that combined make a business thrive. It is a learning skill and people skill combo. Hencue, positive leareship and persuasion force drives success.
I am both a leader and a manager. It all depends on the task and what is needed. I think it is important to know yourself and when you should use certain skills reflecting of a leader or manager.
I believe both managerial skills and leadership skills are necessary to be successful. I see the management component of my role as more transactional and the leadership aspect is more transformational. I tend to lead or manage based on situation.

The various traits that make you a leader and what makes you a manager. Although they work hand in hand the manager trait should not be the dominant one.

I hope to learning the clear difference between leading and managing. I think I lead more that manage because a lot of my time is spent directing and actively guiding faculty. My goal is to move to managing their skill sets and growing their autonomy.
Leadership is where I excel based on this module. I like promoted cohesiveness in the team and also am satisfied motoviating person to do their best. I do believe I need help in the managing areas.
