In my work life I like to think I’m more of a leader because I feel that I’m more of an encourager, I like to see people succeed and I like to help them do it. however, if I need to put on the manager hat I do, probably more so in a leader way though. At home, again I feel like it is a mixture depending on the situation. if we are trying to get something done, definitely a manager! I feel like I have to delegate it in order for it to be done timely. I know that comes from my father who was a drill sergeant. But I’m also a leader in the sense that I want to encourage my children and my husband to be a better version of themselves and that they can attain the goals they set.  I enjoy giving encouraging words and praising for jobs well done. For me, I feel that a leader style manager has more of an impact on generating positive outcomes. Again, I believe it depends on the situation and the person. Some people need a manager to tell them what to do and when to do it, while others like the leader style management.Lynette P.Hi Everyone,In my current position at work, I consider myself a leader. I do not manage anyone beneath me but I am seen as an expert in some areas and I am put in charge of projects on occasion. I am currently working on reviewing, updating, and training others on a new charge card process within the organization. I have to work with others and as decisions are made I am a part of the team that trains others and makes sure all employees are receiving the information. Kumle, J., & Kelly, N. J. (2018) state that leadership is to “guide someone or something along a way”. When it comes to leadership relationships are very important and must come before goals (Kumle, J., & Kelly, N. J., 2018). As I am updating the processes within my organization it is important that I also focus on my and my department’s relationships with other employees. If I do not focus on this it will be very hard to get others to buy into the changes being made and trust will be lost.If I would like to move to higher positions within my organization I will need to possess the skills of a good leader and manager. Being good at one will not guarantee success. I believe that managers and leaders can have equal positive outcomes but when looking at long-term outcomes it is best to have a balance between the two. Many people I have looked up to over my career have found this balance and people I have looked up to over my career have found this balance and made great changes within their organizations. Lynette P.References Kumle, J., & Kelly, N.
