Both leadership and management are important. I personally feel that my leadership skills are sometimes dependent upon the task or vision at hand.

There are significant differences between leadership and management. Both are vital roles, but can be very different.

Effective managers must have influence and this is not a direct result of the organizational structure or "power" of a title/status.

Leaders and Managers are an important asset of an organization, they co-exist but the main point is to understand the value of each other with in their jurisdiction. Leader should not run over the Manager because leader is a visionary and influencer. And the manager should not be jealous of the the leader just because the manager is implementing the policies . Both of them are important and essential for the progress of the organization.

A leader is a person who is with a vision and the manager is the implementor of that vision.

The leader is looking  out of the box to get things done but the Manager is following the guide line from organization structure (Rules and regulations) to get things done. A Leader is looking at the bigger picture where as Manager is taking care of the  business with in the  organization given guideline .

Employees welfare should be a top priority for leaders, as it positively impact the bottom line

I’ve learned about different leadership styles before, but seeing the benefits and risks of each style made me reflect on how I lead. I found that I use different styles depending on the situation, which showed me that leaders don’t have to stick to just one approach. Being flexible and adaptable can help leaders at any level and make an organization stronger and more dynamic.

Amazing insights on various leadership styles and helped to understand how to be situation adaptive to have the right style being used depending on the need of the hour.

Some leading is innate, but some  requires being attuned to the needs of your constituents.  I feel being empathetic, as well as, strategic is important to being a good leader.
