The future of leadership largely depends on the approach managers of all levels have toward employees in their organization. Leadership itself has always been one of the biggest strengths of an organization. The future should show just how vital that leadership becomes. It use to be that leadership came only from the top of an organization. Even today, and more so in the future, leadership is and will be widespread within the organization at all levels. Strategy is still set by leaders and managers at the top, but it is no longer necessary for those same leaders and managers to see that the company goals are achieved. They can now place that responsibility on individuals and teams that are designated by them to achieve those goals. Management and leadership are two separate things all together. These words are often mistaken to mean the same but in reality leadership is a part of management. In fact, leadership is one of the most important traits of a good manager. However, being a leader and being a manager is not necessarily the same thing. In fact, in most organizations today we have leaders in every level in some facet. For a leader to become a manager he or she has to hold some sort of formal authority over other employees.
