There is a great deal of difference between a boss and a leader. A boss tends to give orders and expect results simply because of those orders. A leader, on the other hand, takes a little time to assess the situation and to respond in ways that show respect for the employees, and an understanding of people and situations. The leader looks at both the people and the situation and provides coaching and feedback based on those two dynamics.
