Managers vs. Leaders-
You are discussing some significant differences when it comes to managers vs. leaders, Skye. Anytime I think of leadership and the differences between leaders and managers I always think of General Douglas MacArthur's principles of leadership. Donnithorne (2002) described Douglas MacArthur as a brilliant and farsighted leader. MacArthur developed a list of questions to guide him in his leadership duties. I think these questions are things we can ask ourselves about our own leadership and are a way to really demonstrate leadership everyday. Some of the questions are "Do I heckle my subordinates or strengthen and encourage them? Have I done all in my power by encouragement, incentive, and spur to salvage the weak and erring? Do I act in such a way as to make my subordinates want to follow me? Do I arrogate everything to myself and delegate nothing or delegate tasks that should be mine? Is my door open to my subordinates?" (Donnithorne, 2002, para. 1). Any thoughts?
