A short transcript excerpt from a conversation (featuring Sonya Shelton) distinguishing being an executive from being a leader: executives may rely on title to drive performance, whereas leaders inspire and empower performance by connecting organizational purpose to individuals’ purpose.

What makes the difference between an executive and a leader?
Leaders really kind of focus on their title sometimes on how they're trying to motivate or drive performance within their organization as opposed to leadership. It's really not leaning on your title to drive that performance, but more inspiring and empowering that performance through your purpose and your purpose as a leader, your purpose as a company, and then connecting that to their purpose.
