Managers have subordinates / Leaders have followers
Managers manage tasks / Leaders lead people

Management is the science of getting the job done efficiently through people. It involves coordinated processes, controls and the execution of tasks and projects to accomplish the organization’s mission. Leadership is the art of inspiring and empowering people to see the vision and do their jobs effectively. Not all managers are leaders and not all leaders are managers. The best managers are also great leaders, effectively applying the science of management along with the art of leadership. People naturally follow leaders out of trust, respect and personal motivation. Leaders set the right example and bring out the best in the people who follow them. Effective leaders are connected, engaged and have a passion for their mission. They build teams and instill a vision, motivation and passion in the teams they lead. Leaders are coaches, helping the members of their teams to excel and grow. They freely give positive & negative feedback to team members, building skills and confidence. Effective leaders build winning teams that take pride in their performance.

Creativity Room (part 1) … Where do you get YOUR ideas ?

I am lucky enough to have my office very close to a Green park. Working at 100 meters from Trees and Flowers, Birds and Cows, Children & Playgrounds is a real opportunity. An opportunity to breath fresh air, to get a tan and regain energy, to watch Nature’s « natural » genius and creative process, to think, create and enjoy…

This Green Park, the Scheutbos, located in the West of Brussels, has become a Creativity Room for me.

That’s Where I can get ideas! Where do you get yours?

So if you find me wandering in the middle of the Grass, I am actually working 😉
