I would say that this statement is not entirely true in that different characteristics are
required by both leaders and managers. I will however say that a leader who can both
lead and manage is a GREAT leader. The skills required for the two jobs are different and
at certain points stand in direct opposition to each other.

For the manager trying to recruit a new technician, he should define what he wants in terms of skills, and then get HR to
set up a job profile that he feels will be sufficient that the person that fills that position conforming to those specifications
will be able to do the job required. Once the job profile has been created, a process of internal recruitment can be
followed and a suitable candidate looked for in the current staff pool, and if unsuccessfull, HR will set up an ad that will
indicate to external applicants that the position is available, after which an interview process will be followed with either
the internal or external applicants to see if there is an applicant that does indeed fullfill the required skill levels.
