In general, managers job is only within the range of planning, organizing, and coordinating, while the leaders job is not only focus on the technical things, but also to motivate and inspire other people. As written in the Warren Bennis composed book, On Becoming a Leader, he described the differences between a manager and a leader. The manager administers; the leader innovates. The manager is a copy; the leader is an original. The manager maintains; the leader develops. The manager focuses on systems and structure; the leader focuses on people. The manager relies on control; the leader inspires trust. The manager has a short-range view; the leader has a long-range perspective. The manager asks how and when; the leader asks what and why. The manager has his or her eye always on the bottom line; the leaders eye is on the horizon. The manager imitates; the leader originates. The manager accepts the status quo; the leader challenges it. The manager is the classic good soldier; the leader is his or her own person. The manager does things right; the leader does the right thing.

In John C Maxwell composed book 5 Levels of Leadership, he described that a position is not defined you as a leader, and a manager is the lowest point of leadership. A manager is a leader that people follows just because they have to, thats all. Most of the manager are focuses on the technical things, and daily task. Leader is a whole different thing. A leader is someone that people follows, not because of the positon, but because of who he/s, what s/he has done, what s/he values, and his/her characteristic. As Dale Carnegie said in his book, How to Win Friends and Influence People, 15 percent of ones financial success is due to ones technical knowledge and about 85 percent is due to skill in human engineering to personality and the ability to lead people. So a leader not only focuses on a short term thing such as a project, but s/he also focuses on the people development, which creates more leader.
