John Kotter is a name in the business and leadership thought world.  Danny has been aware of John Kotter but has been reading some of his work lately on leadership vs management.  "Management is about coping with complexity. Good management brings order and consistency to key dimen- sions like the quality and profitability of products. Management makes systems of people and technology work well. Leadership is about coping with change: faster technology, greater international competition, deregula- tion of markets, overcapacity in capi- tal-intensive industries, an unstable oil cartel, and changing demographics. When organizations have high com- petencies in management and leader- ship, they can meet challenges today and tomorrow. However, most organi- zations usually lack one or the other. When management exists without lead- ership, the company is often unable to change. And when leadership exists without management, the company is only as strong as its charismatic leader. Organizations are often overstaffed with managers, but lack enough lead- ership to deal with constant change. "This Article is a good 1st step if you want personal readinghttps://hbr.org/2013/01/management-is-still-not-leadershipYou can email any follow up thoughts to dbowers75@gmail.com
