Clause 5 - leadership
Mohamed Elfatih Omer
Definition
As per ISO Leadership is defined as ” Leadership is the
person or group of people who directs and controls an
organization at the highest level.
The top management has the power to delegate
authority and provide resources within the organization.
If the scope of the management system covers only part
of an organization, then top management refers to those
who direct and control that part of the organization.
Difference between Management and leadership:
Management is mostly about processes.
Leadership is mostly about behavior.
Management relies heavily on tangible measurable
capabilities such as effective planning; the use of
organizational systems; and the use of appropriate
communications methods.
Leadership instead relies most strongly on less tangible
and less measurable things like trust, inspiration,
attitude, decision-making, and personal character.
These are all necessary to motivate an organization to
achieve its management systems objectives.
