Unit 3 Management Skills
Effectiveness of a manager's activity depends on certain im­portant skills. These skills can be divided into seven different categories: conceptual, decision making, analytic, administrative, communicational, interpersonal and technical.
1. A conceptual skill is the ability of a manager to see the "general picture" of an organization. Managers must understand how their duties and the duties of other managers fit together to plan their activity in a proper way and get the required results. This skill is very important for top managers because it helps them plan "super goals" and develop proper strategies for the whole organization.
2. A decision making skill is the ability of a manager to choose the best course of actions of two or more alternatives. A manager must decide the following:
1) What objectives and goals must be reached?
2) What strategy must be implemented?
3) What resources must be used and how they must be distributed?
4) What kind of control is needed?
In short, managers are responsible for the most important decisions which are required to carry out any organizational activity.
3. An analytic skill is the ability to determine the most important problem of many other problems and identify the causes of each problem before implementing a proper action plan. This ability is especially important for top managers because they have to solve complex problems.
4. An administrative skill is the ability of a manager to keep to the organizational rules specified for the production process, within a limited budget, and coordinate the flow of information and paper work in his group and in other groups.
5. A communicational skill is the ability of manager to share his ideas and opinions with other people both orally and in writing. This skill is a decisive factor of a manager's success. Some investigations show that top managers and middle managers spend ap­proximately 80% (percent) of their work time in communicating with each other.
Thus, a communication skill enables managers to hold meetings, write clear letters and explanatory notes, make reports, etc.
6. An interpersonal skill (psychological skill) is the ability to deal effectively with other people both inside and outside the organization. It is the ability to understand the needs and motives of other people. This skill is very important for a good psychological atmosphere for successful activity in the common work in future. If the interpersonal relations are good, a manager will be successful in getting a support in the development and implementation of organizational plans.
7. A technical skill is a specific competence to accomplish a task. The lower is a manager's level in the organization, the closer is the connection with the production process. Thus first-line managers have the closest connection with the production process. They need high technical skills to provide technical guidance for the subordinates. Top managers don't need these skills as much as first-line managers but the knowledge of the technical sphere is useful for all the managers.

Навыки управления Группа 3Эффективность деятельности менеджера зависит от определенных важных навыков. Эти навыки можно разделить на семь различных категорий: концептуальные, принятие решений, аналитически, административные, коммуникативные, межличностные и технические.1. концептуальное искусство является способность менеджера увидеть «общую картину» Организации. Менеджеры должны понимать, как их обязанности и обязанности других менеджеров сочетаются вместе, чтобы планировать свою деятельность надлежащим образом и получить требуемые результаты. Это умение очень важно для топ-менеджеров, потому что это помогает им планировать «Супер цели» и разработать надлежащие стратегии для всей Организации.2. навыки принятия решений является способность менеджера выбрать лучший курс действий двух или более альтернатив. Менеджер должен решить следующее:1) какие цели и задачи необходимо достичь?2) какая стратегия должна осуществляться?3) какие ресурсы необходимо использовать, и как они должны быть распределены?4) какой элемент управления требуется?Короче говоря руководители отвечают за наиболее важные решения, которые необходимы для выполнения какой-либо организационной деятельности.3. аналитическое мастерство является возможность определить наиболее важной проблемой многих других проблем и выявить причины каждой проблемы перед реализацией плана надлежащих действий. Эта способность особенно важно для топ-менеджеров, потому что они должны решать сложные задачи.4. An administrative skill is the ability of a manager to keep to the organizational rules specified for the production process, within a limited budget, and coordinate the flow of information and paper work in his group and in other groups.5. A communicational skill is the ability of manager to share his ideas and opinions with other people both orally and in writing. This skill is a decisive factor of a manager's success. Some investigations show that top managers and middle managers spend ap­proximately 80% (percent) of their work time in communicating with each other.Thus, a communication skill enables managers to hold meetings, write clear letters and explanatory notes, make reports, etc.6. An interpersonal skill (psychological skill) is the ability to deal effectively with other people both inside and outside the organization. It is the ability to understand the needs and motives of other people. This skill is very important for a good psychological atmosphere for successful activity in the common work in future. If the interpersonal relations are good, a manager will be successful in getting a support in the development and implementation of organizational plans.7. технический навык является конкретной компетенцией для выполнения задачи. Чем ниже уровень менеджера в Организации, чем ближе связь с производственным процессом. Таким образом менеджеры первой линии имеют тесную связь с производственным процессом. Они нуждаются в высоких технических навыков, чтобы обеспечить техническое руководство для подчиненных. Топ-менеджеры не нужны эти навыки, как менеджеры первой линии, но знание технической сферы является полезным для всех менеджеров.
