Management Skills
A manager’s job is complex and multidimensional and requires a range of skills. The necessary skills for managing an organization can be summarized in three categories:
1-15
Management Skills
• Conceptual skill is the cognitive ability to see the organization as a whole and the relationship among its parts. Conceptual skill involves the manager’s thinking, information processing, and planning abilities. It involves knowing where one’s department fits into the total organization and how the organization fits into the industry, the community, and the broader business and social environment. It means the ability to “think strategically” – to take the broad, long-term view.
1-16
Management Skills
• Human skill is the ability to work with and through other people and to work effectively as a group member. This skill is demonstrated in the way a manager relates to other people, including the ability to motivate, facilitate, coordinate, lead, communicate, and resolve conflicts. A manager with human skills allows subordinates to express themselves without fear of ridicule and encourages participation.
1-17
Management Skills
• Technical skill is the understanding of and proficiency in the performance of specific tasks. Technical skill includes mastery of the methods, techniques, and equipment involved in specific functions. Technical skill also includes specialized knowledge, analytical ability, and the competent use of tools and techniques to solve problems in that specific discipline. Technical skills are particularly important at lower organizational levels. Many managers get promoted to their first management job by having excellent technical skills. However, technical skills become less important than human and conceptual skills as managers move up the hierarchy.

Management Types
Vertical Differences
An important determinant of the manager’s job is hierarchical level.
1-19
Management Types
1-20
Management Types
Top managers
are responsible for the entire organization (president, chairperson, executive director, chief executive officer).
• setting organizational goals, • defining strategies for achieving them, • monitoring and interpreting the external
environment, and • making decisions that affect the entire
organization.
1-21
Management Types
Middle managers are responsible for business units and major departments. They typically have two or more management levels beneath them. They are responsible for:
• implementing the overall strategies and policies defined
• concerned with the near future and are expected to establish good relationships with peers around the organization, encourage teamwork, and resolve conflicts
• responsible for creating a horizontal network
1-22
Management Types
First-line managers
are directly responsible for the production of goods and services (supervisor, line manager, section chief). They are responsible for groups of non-management employees. Their primary concern is
• the application of rules and procedures to achieve efficient production,
• provide technical assistance, and • motivate subordinates.
1-23
Management Types
Horizontal Differences
The other major difference in management jobs occurs horizontally across the organization
1-24
Management Types
• Functional managers are responsible for departments that perform a single function task and have employees with similar training and skills. Functional departments include finance, human resources, accounting, production. Line managers are responsible for the production departments that make or sell the product or service. Staff managers are in charge of departments such as finance and human resources that support line department.
1-25
Management Types
• General managers are responsible for several departments that perform different functions. A general manager is responsible for a self-contained division. Project managers also have general management responsibility, because they coordinate people across several departments to accomplish a specific project.

Manager Roles
A role is a set of expectations for a manager’s behaviour.
Roles are directed inside as well as outside of the organization.
These roles are divided into three conceptual categories:
1-29
Informational Roles
Roles associated with the tasks needed to obtain and transmit information in the process of managing the organization.– Monitor—analyzing information from both the
internal and external environment.– Disseminator—transmitting information to influence
the attitudes and behavior of employees.– Spokesperson—using information to positively
influence the way people in and out of the organization respond to it.
1-30
Interpersonal Roles
Roles that managers assume to provide direction and supervision to both employees and the organization as a whole.– Figurehead—symbolizing the organization’s
mission and what it is seeking to achieve.– Leader—training, counseling, and mentoring high
employee performance.– Liaison—linking and coordinating the activities of
people and groups both inside and outside the organization.
1-31
Decisional Roles
Roles associated with methods managers use in planning strategy and utilizing resources.– Entrepreneur—deciding which new projects or
programs to initiate and to invest resources in. – Disturbance handler—managing an unexpected
event or crisis.– Resource allocator—assigning resources between
functions and divisions, setting the budgets of lower managers.
– Negotiator—reaching agreements between other managers, unions, customers, or shareholders.

The Changing Paradigm of Management
. A paradigm is a shared mind-set that represents a fundamental way of thinking about, perceiving, and understanding the world. Shifts in ways of thinking are occurring in our society, and these in turn impact organizations, causing shifts in management thinking and behaviour. The primary shift is from the traditional vertical organization to something called the learning organization.
1-33
The Changing Paradigm of Management
Old Paradigm – Vertical Organization• one in which activities are grouped by common
function from the bottom to the top of the organization. The whole organization is coordinated and controlled through the vertical hierarchy, with decision-making authority residing with upper-level managers.
• characterized by routine, specialized jobs and standardized control procedures.
• very effective in stable times. However, they often do not work well in fast-changing environments. In response, many companies are shifting to a new paradigm and becoming organizations.
1-34
The Changing Paradigm of Management
New Paradigm - Learning Organization• the primary responsibility of the managers is not to
make decisions, but to create learning capability throughout the organization. Employees on the front lines routinely make decisions rather than passing them up the hierarchy for approval.
• there is no single model of the learning organization; it is a philosophy or attitude about what an organization is and the role of employees.
• everyone in the organizations participates in identifying and solving problems, enabling the organization to continuously experiment, improve, and increase its capability.
1-35
The Changing Paradigm of Management
• top managers are leaders who create a vision for the future that is widely understood and imprinted throughout the organization.
• employees are empowered to identify and solve problems because they understand the vision and long-term goals of the organization.
1-36
The Changing Paradigm of Management
The traditional top-down hierarchy is giving way to flatter organizations to built around self-directed teams collaborating across levels and departments. Lower-level managers serve as team leaders, coaches and facilitators.
1-37
Forces on Organizations
1) The most striking change now affecting organization and management is globalization. Globalization brings a need for relentless innovation, greater concern for quality, rapid response, enhanced productivity, and new levels of customer service.
1-38
Forces on Organizations
2) Diversity of the workforce has become a fact of life for all organizations, even those that do not operate globally.

Forces on Organizations
3) Another significant shift is that technology is electronic rather than mechanical, as the world is gradually shifting from a workforce that produces material things to one that primarily manages information.

Forces on Organizations
4) In the face of these rapid transformations, organizations are learning to value change over stability.

New Management Competencies
Managers rely on varied skills and perform different activities depending on hierarchical level and job responsibilities. For all managers, however, human skills are becoming increasingly important. Critical skills for top-level managers in today’s world include the ability to create an exciting and demanding work environment and to inspire confidence in and support for the organization and its leadership.
1-42
New Management Competencies
Middle managers have to learn to build relationships, empower others, promote cooperation, and manage conflict. First-line supervisors need the ability to motivate workers on a day-to-day basis and sustain employee energy toward he completion of organizational goals. Thus, although managers at different levels play different roles and rely on different skills, there are some manager competencies that are important to all managers in the new world of organizations.
1-43
New Management Competencies
Rather than a single-minded focus on profits, today’s managers recognize the importance of staying connected to clients and employees on a daily basis. They remain flexible and adaptable, able to respond quickly to client and employee needs. Rather than simply issuing orders, managers finding ways to benefit from employees’ insights giving them the freedom to make decisions and solve problems.
1-44
New Management Competencies
Leadership is dispersed throughout the organization, and managers share rather than hoard power. The model of managers controlling workers no longer applies in a world of rapidly changing technology, diversity, and global competition. Instead, managers act as coaches and facilitators, getting everyone involved and committed. Everyone is given a chance to be a leader.
