RE: Teams Leaders what are they, and do we need them? - Extension from Re: [xpAdopti

Hi Scott,
 
I agree on the manager front, but leaders are a different breed.  One of the desirable outcomes of leaders is that folks are enabled, but I don't think that is the leader's task.  I think her task is to "blaze the trail" and set examples.  As has been stated here by many better spoken than myself, leaders aren't really appointed, they emerge.  Managers are appointed.
 
Sometimes, we are lucky and the manager is also a leader.  That has always been my goal as a manager.

Leaders should not lead, managers should not manage.

In my view, a good leader would not to expect everyone to follow.
