Is a referee a leader or manager?
Often today we use the term referee or leader interchangeably. This dilutes the difference those roles have. Which poses the question... is a sports referee a leader or a manager?
Establishing the differences, allows us to define the responsibilies of each.
In today's podcast, Clark Ray, Tony Walmsley and I discussed Managers, Leaders and Followers.
What are the rights, responsibilities and duties of each?

Is it the responsibility of team members to follow? Or for leaders to inspire followers to want to follow?
