What are examples of how leadership and management are mutually exclusive?

Answer 1

This is assuming that leadership and management are mutually exclusive. They can very well be the same individual - but here are the distinct ways they COULD be. Management - Ultimately responsible (buck stops here). Management is responsible for each employee's contribution. They are held accountable for such. A Manager could very well be fired for one of his staff's incompetence. Leaders - Do not have the liability of responsibility. Management - Delegates tasks and assignments. Leaders - Motivate others to do more, with no threat of negative consequences. Management - Can use threat of negative consequences as a method of 'motivation' (leadership by fear) that if you don't do something, this will happen...(threats)
