- Abstract
The paper investigates the relationship between the concepts of "leadership" and "self-leadership". It is revealed that these concepts have both a common basis and significant differences. Leadership includes such competencies: self-setting by the employee of naturally motivated goals and objectives, making decisions about the most effective ways to solve them. It is dominated by intrinsic motivation, self-development orientation. The highest level of self-leadership development is to use the whole complex of self-management methods. The general definition of leadership includes the ability to lead people. It is dominated by external motivation of merit recognition, respect from people and focus on the team building. Leadership includes the ability to apply methods of management and self-management. These initial positions are embedded in a research questionnaire to find out the correlation of leadership and self-leadership competencies in the activities of managers and executives. According to the results of our study, the qualities of self-leadership and leadership among managers are developed fairly proportionally, while the majority of highly professional performers have developed only competence of self-leadership. In both groups, the common leading motive of behaviour seem to be the merit recognition.
