Rost distinguishes between management and leadership:
“management is an authority relationship between at least one manager and one subordinate who coordinate their activities to produce and sell particular goods and/or services”.
He defines leadership as “an influence relationship among leaders and followers who intend real changes that reflect their mutual purposes.”
Divergence between Management and Leadership
While management strives for stability, “leadership is a process of transformative change”.
Leadership is in action when a change has to be brought about in the behavior of a group.
