Leadership and management are not the same thing. They complement each other and often go hand in hand, but you can be a great leader without ever being a manager.

As a manager you will need to plan, organise, co-ordinate, monitor and delegate. As a leader you will need to inspire, empower, lead, influence and motivate. The key is to combine strong leadership with strong management and make sure that they complement each other.
