Is a good manager automatically a good leader and vice versa?
The differences between the roles are becoming more blurred.
However, it is important that HR understands the differences (and similarities) not only because of recruitment decisions but also competencies, promotions, rewards, and development. The main difference between leaders and managers is that leaders have people follow them while managers have people who work for them.
