Roles of a Leader and a Manager
!| !| !| !| !| !|
Most individuals tend to perceive that a leader and a manager are universal concepts,
!| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !|
therefore, they perform the same roles. Conversely, this is flawed because the two positions are
!| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !|
expected to perform different responsibilities in their affiliated fields. Leaders are typically
!| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !|
involved with the role of creating and communicating change as well as maintaining motivation
!| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !|
(Yoder-Wise & Sportsman, 2022). They also help adopt long-term goals, encourage and
!| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !|
energize the workers, and advocate for change and growth. On the other hand, managers are
!| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !|
functional in overseeing tasks and operations in day-to-day practice to foster and sustain
!| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !|
efficiency and optimal productivity (Belbin & Brown, 2022). Additionally, they assist in
!| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !|
keeping and implementing the structure and working procedures enforced across their field of
!| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !|
practice. !|
Present Leadership and Management Skills

Ideally, I exhibit vast leadership skills that are resourceful in navigating distinct areas of
!| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !|
personal and professional life. These entail excellent communication skills, which allow me to
!| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !|
convey and share information efficiently and persuasively. My empathy skills also ensure I
!| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !|
understand and share others' feelings. Besides, I possess a clear sense of direction and goals for
!| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !|
the future, acting as an anchor for personal and professional development in a structured
!| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !|
approach. In addition, I manifest diverse management skills, such as proficiency in organizing
