Leadership: The desire to lead, establish direction and assume primary responsibility for establishing the overall directives and objectives. Emphasis is on directing and influencing.
Management: The desire to manage, develop others and assume responsibility for the overall execution of directives and objectives. Emphasis is on development and resource utilization.
