Management vs. Leadership: What’s the difference?

Management vs. Leadership: What’s the difference?

Episode #267 // Every so often, we produce an episode of No Bullsh!t Leadership that challenges conventional leadership wisdom. I call them my 'myth buster' episodes, and in the past, I’ve taken on some of the most widely accepted axioms:



Challenging conventional wisdom is tricky, because there’s always at least some measure of truth to it. But we can’t allow ourselves to fall into the habit of accepting these statements as truisms, without considering them a little more rigorously. If we do, we run the risk of believing our own bullsh!t.


In this episode, I challenge the notion that management and leadership are separate disciplines: one being aspirational and virtuous, the other being somehow lesser.


This is a very practical episode, where I briefly explore the traditional concepts of leadership and management, and then bring them to life with a number of real world examples that demonstrate how intertwined and inseparable the two concepts truly are.
