To Dr. Clover (Response Needed From Instructor)

Marsha: You've provided a very thoughtful, well researched, and excellent response. You stated this: " However, it is important to note, from a scrutiny of the tenets of leadership and management, there are shared characteristics between the two, which implies that successful leaders have excellent managerial skills, and at the same time, successful managers require good leadership skills and competencies." Given that we know one distinction between leadership and managing is that while leaders typically have effective management skills, as you've accurately portrayed, not all managers are leaders. So, what do you think, relative to the portion of the statement I've highlighted, prevents managers from making the leap from managing to leading?
