Abstract
Working with people as a superior, can be done in many ways and the decision to choose which one, can depend on the vision or what is needed. The two classic terms which gets referred to is leading and managing. The two methods is seen as different ways of working, leading is represented as the one standing in the front and leading his people. Managing is different as the superior is seen as the one commanding from the back and giving instructions. The two methods are often used simultaneously in companies to accomplish the visions set. The two methods are widely accepted as different, and people is acquired depending on which skill set they bring to a project. The skillset of leaders is inspiration, honesty, integrity, transparency, and communication, which all needed for people to follow and feel valuable. A manager is often described as focused, rule-bound, ability of being direct and being able to execute on a vision. Project managers is often leading people or working with people, knowing which method of managing is needed is a must. Project managers need to be fluent in the two styles of working with people, as their work is often very broad and includes many different projects and programs. Knowing which style to use is a must as up to 70% of employee’s motivation and productivity is influenced by the different style used as noted by Smarp[1]. The managing style of leadership often has a bad reputation within the working industry, as it often doesn’t work with the employee, and they often feel voiceless. Managers is still a thing and needed for businesses as they get the job done. The leader takes his coworkers/employees voices into concern and work with them, which often leads to higher satisfaction within the work environment.
