General Session – “Leadership vs.
Management” |
|
|
Presenter and Facilitator: Mike Ford |
|
|
Think of all the terms we use to
describe people in the organization
hierarchy: shift leader, team leader,
organizer, supervisor, department
manager, VP, President, CEO, owner. Do
all of these positions require the same
skill sets? Some are front line
positions in the trenches, others are
field generals who are far behind the
action, and a few are strategists who
map out plans from a secure off-site
command center. Similarly, some people
can lead, some can manage, and a very,
very select few can do both. This
workshop defines each approach,
demonstrates how supervisors can learn
to improve both skill sets and describes
the scenarios in which one is preferred
to the other. |

Participants will learn:
The definition
and traditional roles of a Leader
The definition and traditional roles of
a Manager
