SEU Leadership Alignment with Saudi Vision 2030 Discussion

Question

You mentioned the difference between leaders and managers.

Here’ s an analogy that can help people visualize the difference:

  • Manager: An orchestra conductor who ensures each instrument plays its part correctly within the existing score.
  • Leader: A composer who creates the music, inspires the orchestra and guides them to express their full potential.

Some claim that both leaders and managers are crucial in any successful organization, but it’s the combination of strong leadership and effective management that truly drives a team toward greatness.

Q- What are your thoughts on this analogy and definition?
