The meaning of the word Mastery as defined by Art Kleiner, “Mastery, as we use the word today, reflects maître. It means the capacity not only to produce results, but also to “master” the principles underlying the way you produce results” – -from The Fifth Discipline Fieldbook by Peter Senge, et. al.

In his book, The Servant, author James C. Hunter defines Leadership as “the skill of influencing people to work enthusiastically toward goals identified as being for the common good”.

Leadership versus Management

By GilderGroupInternational Leave a Comment

The critical question that is almost always asked in our Leadership Boot Camp is, what’s the difference between leadership and management? Over the years, we have gathered lots of interesting and well thought answers to this question. The answers have a common thread, leadership focuses on people and management focuses on things; for example policies, processes, and procedures .

The leadership versus management discussions are high-spirited, because we find that most people consider these words synonymous and some people do not. Some consider leadership more vital than management, while others do not. What are your thoughts on leadership versus management?

Mastering Leadership question(s):  What is the difference between leadership and management? Is leadership more vital than management?
