This is a summing up in a series discussing whether Warren Bennis’ 13 differences between leaders and managers still holds in light of today’s modern workforce.
In a comment on the prequel to this series Phil Gerbyshak said, “I agree wholeheartedly that great managers have BOTH qualities…though I know […]

Nick McCormick’s comment left on George Ambler’s Leaders vs. Managers….. Are they really different? did a great job summing up my feelings on this perpetual controversy.
George cites Warren Bennis’ statement “There is a profound difference between management and leadership, and both are important. To manage means to bring […]

The difficulty of getting an appointment to see your doctor (wait time) is the bogyman thrown up to defeat universal healthcare, but the statistics don’t back that up.
