Assess the difference between a leader and a manager

Objectives:
1. Define 3 types of leadership models (see page 463 in your text book or you may venture out and use other leadership models as well). I have attached the reading from my book.
2. Assess the difference between a leader and a manager.
3. Evaluate the effectiveness of the 3 leadership models, efficiency, lack of efficiency, and why or why not.
4. Discuss personal experiences outside of the course by sharing new perspectives and incorporating your own thoughts and ideas backed up by evidence from peer reviewed journal articles.

*Please note that leadership models and theories are two different things. Please use leadership models only.

Many of us have had experience with different types of leadership in our nursing practice.  Who made the most positive influence in your job? Who made the least influence? Which leadership style do you find most efficient?  Take your ideas and thoughts and back them up with some evidence based practice to formulate your final project.
