Every organization need strong leadership and strong management for ideal effectiveness, and these are core related, the relationship of multi directional control and management is a relationship of unidirectional authority.

According to the above table, mark the point on each continuum object that represents the relative focus on the leadership or management of the individual with whom you have worked. Business executives can lean more towards leadership or management at different times, depending on the situation. There are a variety of conclusions that can be drawn from the details provided in Table 1. First, good leaders are not necessarily good managers, and good managers are not necessarily good managers. Second, strong management skills turn the dream of a leader into reality and effective execution. Always successful execution is the guiding force behind organizational success.

Team-based organizational frameworks expand leadership roles for working groups and cross-departmental teams in most corporate organizations. There is also a greater need for more feedback from the community leaders at all levels of the company (Lunenburg & Potter, 2008).

Conclusion

Organizations have the legal authority to direct their administrators, but there is no guarantee that they will be able to lead effectively. Organizations need good leadership and effective governance to ensure optimal performance. In today's diverse workforce, we need leaders to question the status quo and encourage and convince members of the company. We also need managers to assist in developing and maintaining a smoothly functioning workplace.
