Future of Management

 

            The future of leadership largely depends on the approach managers of all levels have toward employees in their organization. Leadership itself has always been one of the biggest strengths of an organization. The future should show just how vital that leadership becomes. It use to be that leadership came only from the top of an organization. Even today, and more so in the future, leadership is and will be widespread within the organization at all levels. Strategy is still set by leaders and managers at the top, but it is no longer necessary for those same leaders and managers to see that the company goals are achieved. They can now place that responsibility on individuals and teams that are designated by them to achieve those goals.
             Management and leadership are two separate things all together. These words are often mistaken to mean the same but in reality leadership is a part of management. In fact, leadership is one of the most important traits of a good manager. However, being a leader and being a manager is not necessarily the same thing. In fact, in most organizations today we have leaders in every level in some facet. For a leader to become a manager he or she has to hold some sort of formal authority over other employees. Managers can also be leaders who do not necessarily have to lead all the time. Organizations that are structured in teams or departments will have leaders within each group. This shows that there does not always have to be a set leader at the top to be successful.
             One of the major differences between leaders and managers are that managers are more likely to follow the guidelines set by the company in order to achieve their goals. Leaders are more likely to follow their own instincts and do things in a way in which they have grown accustomed to in order to achieve the same goals. Leaders often offer a different perspective than do managers. Managers often have a set way of doing things according to how they were trained by the company.
