Leading by example - Pacesetting is my preferred style.  I want my team to know that set goals are achievable, and let's get it done.  I also want to allow my team members the chance to develop and realize their full potential. 

Comment on Sarah Batz's post: This is quite an eye-opener.  Team members will try to improve processes or eliminate redundancies.  Others will stick to the status quo and follow established blueprints.   I now understand the leaders (former) versus the managers (latter).

Comment on Vladimir Velasquez's post: I agree Vladimir, good leaders and managers are both vital for organizational growth and success.

Comment on Kassidy Lax's post: Your statement is true Kassidy, but it takes a different kind of personality to manage teams with diverging needs, performance levels, and skill sets.   While I think the two roles can overlap at times, I also think that the role of a manager is tougher than that of a leader.  

This module taught me the differences between project managers, project sponsors, and project team leaders.  Project sponsors act as the liaison between senior management and the project team.

That's true Billie, blocking time and communicating expectations definitely helps with time management.
