About the Event Leadership There is a profound difference between leadership and management. Dwight D. Eisenhower (Ike) was a leader par excellence; in the face of varied egos, conflict, multiple personal and National agendas, he maintained a fixed course in achieving an objective. Thoren Oakenshield, on the other hand, was a manager: his team of dwarves (and a one consulting hobbit) confronted and overcame issues in achieving a single objective. Ike used a combination of influence models to resolve conflict, creating a common vision while instilling shared responsibility. Thoren led his team with single-minded pursuit of his objective overcoming many obstacles combining his resources and their disparate skills into a single cohesive team. In many respects, leaders may be thought of as strategic where managers might be considered more tactical. Managers spend their resources to achieve a goal where leaders may use their resources to help customers vision a future state, from which the goal is derived. This session will focus on comparing leaders and managers, identifying the various attributes and tools effectively used by both.
