QUESTION? What is the difference between management and leadership?
LET'S SEE www.kotterinternational.com/our-principles/change-leadership
MANAGEMENT? • Management is about coping with complexity • Its practices and procedures are largely responses to one of the most significant developments of the twentieth century: the emergence of large organizations.
MANAGEMENT? Without good management, complex enterprises tend to become chaotic in ways that threaten their very existence. Good management brings a degree of order and consistency to key dimensions like the quality and profitability of products.
LEADERSHIP • Leadership, by contrast, is about coping with change. • The net result is that doing what was done yesterday, or doing it 5% better, is no longer a formula for success. • Major changes are more and more necessary to survive and compete effectively in this new environment. More change always demands more leadership.
Imagine • . . . that your professor asked you to organize a one day symposium for a visiting scholar. You are to invite everyone in the department and university leaders. • What activities/tasks/steps need to be taken? • How long should each take? • Who should be involved?
What do you think? • What do you feel is the primary role(s) of a manager? • Can you separate leadership and management? • What has been your experience? For advanced groups: Think about where you spend most of your time. Leadership/management? Is it the right percentage?
Work Plans: The Key to Successful One Health Initiative Management Management, One Health Course
Why would you want to create a work plan for a One Health Project?
A project work plan… • Records planning assumptions and decisions • Facilitates communication among stakeholders • Documents scope, cost and schedule
A project work plan answers the questions… • Why? – Why are we doing the initiative? • What? - What is the work that needs to be performed to successfully complete the initiative? What are the major products/deliverables? • Who? - Who will be involved and what will be their responsibilities within the initiative? How will they be organized? • When? - What is the initiative’s timeline and when will particularly meaningful points, referred to as milestones, be complete? • Where? - Where is the activity or initiative taking place, e.g., the location?
Progress tracked through indicators • Indicators are a way to track progress • Indicators can be • Quantitative • Qualitative

Policies and Procedures: The Key to Guiding and Supporting One Health Initiatives Management, One Health Course
If we define… • POLICIES as tools that set boundaries within which we operate… • What value do you think policies bring to universities, government ministries, and One Health initiatives? • PROCEDURES as the series of steps or actions that we use to accomplish specific tasks… • What value do you think procedures add to One Health initiatives?
policies • Are general in nature • Identify company rules • Explain why they exist • Tell when the rule applies • Describe who it covers • Show how the rule is enforced • Describe the consequences • Are normally described using simple sentences and paragraphs
procedures • Identify specific actions • Explain when to take actions • Describe alternatives • Show emergency actions • Include warning and cautions • Give examples • Show how to complete forms • Are normally written using an outline format
What makes a good policy? • A good procedure?

Monitoring Implementation to Achieve Outcomes Management, One Health Course
Being busy does not always mean real work. The object of all work is production or accomplishment and to either of these ends there must be forethought, system, planning, intelligence, and honest purpose, as well as perspiration. Seeming to do is not doing. Thomas A. Edison Productivity is never an accident. It is always the result of a commitment to excellence, intelligent planning, and focused effort. Paul J. Meyer Plans are nothing; planning is everything. Dwight D. Eisenhower Let our advance worrying become advance thinking and planning. Winston Churchill Anticipating risks and planning for change
