Manager vs Leader
Managing is functional - organising resources. Leading is inspiring people to be the
best they can
Leaders shape the destination, managers organise the travel arrangements.
Leaders can see the bigger picture and have a longer term approach. Managers get
the job done day to day and help their teams achieve the current objectives.
In a global environment how do you align your organisation’s values and
leadership style across different locations?
A corporate strategy is followed by all. Regular meetings and reinforcing the objectives
also help
Clear communication of the organisation’s strategies
Technology
Changes in leadership challenges
What are the unique challenges you
have faced in managing and leading
millennials? Helping others to realise the freedoms
and opportunities they can have if they
reach for them
Keeping them constantly incentivised
There is a constantly reducing
expectation of not only working for less time
in any particular organisation but also in any
particular career type.
There is no motivation to build roots -
short termism
Harnessing and shaping their
commitment and values in a rapidly
changing environment
The rise of the millennial and generation
'Y' is very much on the agenda. Do you
feel you have had to change your
approach to leadership development as
a result of this ‘phenomenon?’
