Differences Between Managers and Leaders On Becoming a Leader The manager administers; the leader innovates. The manager is a copy; the leader is an original. The manager maintains; the leader develops. The manager focuses on systems and structure; the leader focuses on people. The manager relies on control; the leader inspires trust. The manager has a short-range view; the leader has a long-range perspective. The manager asks how and when; the leader asks what and why. Managers have their eyes on the bottom line; leaders have their eyes on the horizon. The manager imitates; the leader originates. The manager accepts the status quo; the leader challenges it. The manager is the classic good soldier; the leader is his own person. The manager does things right; the leader does the right thing. read less

Steven R. Covey, in his most effective book - 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, gives a very accurate and elaborate distinction between Managers and Leaders.
With the words of Peter Drucker and Warren Bennis - "Management is doing things right; Leadership is doing the right things". Mr Covey very innovatively draws an example that leaders are showing and paving the way, who climb up on the highest trees to tell the rest below whether they are in the right or the wrong jungle.
Whereas the Managers are the doers - ones are doing the muscle work, arranging the workforce, making the necessary changes for going forward, bringing in the relevant technologies, tools, setting up working schedules and compensation program.

A manager should be a leader but in order to be a leader one does not have to be a manager. Leaders don't need a designation in order to lead. A manager on the other hand is a mere designation.
