What are the recognized and perceived differences between a PhD and a DM in Management

What are the recognized and perceived differences between a PhD and a DM in Management?
I understand the literal differences and what is involved there but what is the pubic perception of the two degrees? Are they really equal ?

I don't think they are equal. The DM does not emphasize research as much as the PhD. It is far easier to get so not worth as much.

This public has not idea what a DM is. This would be the first time I have ever heard of such a degree. I don't know enough about it to say one way or the other.
