Summary

This quote highlights the distinction between a leader and a boss. While a leader guides and inspires their team, a boss tends to dictate and push others towards goals. Leaders prioritize collaboration, motivation, and empowerment, guiding their team members towards success through guidance and example. In contrast, bosses typically focus on control and authority, using coercion or fear to achieve objectives. It underscores that effective leadership lies in leading with integrity, empathy, and vision rather than relying on a position of power and enforcement.
