4. Leadership Vs. Management
Leadership
• to lead is to have followers, and
following is always a voluntary
activity.
• leaders are comfortable with risk
and will see routes that others
avoid as potential opportunities for
advantage
• Leadership is the art of getting
someone else to do something you
want done because he wants to do
it.– Dwight D. Eisenhower
Management
• managers have a position of
authority vested in them by the
company, and their subordinates
work for them and largely do as
they are told
• managers are paid to get things
done
• managers live a relatively
comfortable life and which leads
them to be risk-averse and they will
seek to avoid conflict where
possible

Why is it important?
Effective communication at work is important because it allows
managers and employees to share important information, which
helps the company succeed. Having the ability to identify with and
understand somebody else's feeling or difficulties is having
Empathy. It’s also known as open communication. It helps prevents
barriers from forming within the company that will stop progress in
reaching our goals. We must be able to interact clearly and
effectively at work with each other. It helps:

9. 2. Integrity

10. Integrity
Integrity is doing the right thing, even when no one is looking, and
even if it means going against the grain of what you know. It’s also
the condition of being just or impartial also known as fairness. It
can be a hard thing to do, to stand up for what is right, especially
against your friends. Always remember that the moment you don't
speak up about negative behavior, you have then condoned said
behavior. A real leader will ALWAYS speak up...even if it's the
unpopular choice. The quality, condition, or characteristic of being
fair, truthful, and morally upright is called honesty.

honesty, loyalty, and
fairness is Integrity.

12. 3. Leading by example
Making Sure You "Walk the Talk"
When you lead by example, you create a picture
of what's possible. People can look at you and
say, "Well, if he can do it, I can do it." When you
lead by example, you make it easy for others to
follow you. By being Confident, optimistic, and
focusing on good things rather than bad people
recognize you as having a positive attitude
L&D Officer Cindy L. Ponce

13. 4. Ability to inspire
★ inspiring your team to see the vision of the successes to come.
○ We want to use our personality and expertise to inspire others to see
‘the’ vision’. When they buy in, we get things done as a team. We are
inspired together.
■ Enthusiasm is a strong excitement, vision is what we see or
want, commitment is sticking to something, confidence is full
trust in yourself
■ Teamwork is a cooperative effort put in by a group or team
★ Inspiring your team to feel invested in the accomplishments of the
company.
○ This tells us to inspire our team to look back at our accomplishments as
opposed to looking forward to the vision.
■ Inspiration can very well come from the past.
★ Inspiring your team is great for focusing on the future goals, but it is also
important for the current issues.
○ it doesn’t always happen like it should. Sometimes the plan goes
astray and we need to regroup. Short term goals are vital to reach our
future goals and need motivation.
L&D Officer Cindy L. Ponce

14. A conflict arises when people have disagreements or clash between ideas,
principles, people, different interests, opinions and thought processes and are
just not willing to compromise with each other.
Nothing productive will ever come out if the employees are constantly fighting
and criticizing others.
Conflict Management is very important because it is always wise to prevent a fight
at the first place rather than facing its negative consequences.
Stress disappears, people feel motivated, happy and the world definitely becomes
a much better place to stay as a result of conflict management.

15. 6. Delegating
Delegating frees you up to tackle the truly important aspects of your project.
•Too many leaders, believing only they are able to do things just right, insist on being involved
in every single detail of their missions. They believe that this ultra-hands-on approach is good
for business because they’re making sure everything gets done just so
Delegating increases the morale, confidence, and productivity of the team.
• Leaders that give important responsibilities to their team, along with the freedom to
complete the task their way, builds his team’s innovation, morale, and satisfaction. It is crucial
for a leader to show those under him…. that he trusts them.
Delegating saves you time.
• Not only does delegating allow you to concentrate on more important matters, it simply
gives you more time in general.
