This is a quote from Seth Godin's book Tribes - We need you to lead us. He further elaborates that management is about manipulating resources to get a known job done, whereas leadership is about creating change that you believe in.

"Managers manage by using the authority the factory gives them. You listen to you manager or you lose your job."

"Leaders, on the other hand, don't care very much for organizational structure or the official blessing of whatever factory they work for. They use passion and ideas to lead people, as opposed to using threats and bureaucracy to manage them." [Empasis is mine.]

Seth also states that everyone can lead, regardless of position. "Skill and attitude are essential. Authority is not."

He describes a tribe that follows a leader as a group of people that has:

• A shared interest
• A way to communicate
