A manager's mandate and mission

Here are two terms that seem to define the same content. In fact, if you consult a dictionary, you'll find that :
- Mandate means "Function, charge entrusted to someone to do such and such a thing on behalf of someone, of a group: To fulfill one's mandate".
- Mission means "the responsibility given to someone to accomplish a defined task: to receive a delicate mission".
- You'll have to look carefully to find another definition of the term "Mission" to get a different reading of it; it's the definition that corresponds to the field of religion. Indeed, Mission is defined here as "A high goal, a duty inherent in a function, a profession, an activity and the social role attributed to it: The journalist's mission is to inform. It is even referred to as "Divine delegation, given for a religious purpose".

So how can the leaders of our organizations reach the top by working around these two concepts?
