help in achieving the goals of the business. In comparing, managers and leaders, leaders play a
vital role in achieving the success of the business (Avolia and Gardner, 2005). Leaders are those
who set the direction of the organization. They motivate and inspire the employees and staff of

will help employees in the future. Leadership development turns the employees into the
followers and management turns the employees into the subordinates (Storey, 2004). In every
situation, leaders take the courage to handle the various situation for solving the problems and
issues faced by the employees. Managers always want to keep employees safe in every situation;
which includes making safe moves.
In order to make the vision come alive in organizational stakeholders, leaders align the inputs
and efforts in partners, stockholders, clients, and employees. Leaders help in creating a culture in
business and bring the vision of life. Managers set the vision of leaders within the set budget and
the resources which are allocated (Bush, 2008). For executing the vision leaders create and
manage a team and also solve the various operational problems that employees may have.
Leadership Development programs help the enterprise in change management and developing
sustainable and high-performing teams that help in benefiting the organization. The management
development improves the core competencies of the business by delegating the authorities
appropriately and encouraging the effective teams and enhancing the communication and helps
in managing the conflict in the team. In regards to the Garvey Group, Leadership Development

delegate the authority and responsibility to the individual who will perform the job and leaders

them to achieve their goals.
