Essay



 A manager is often portrayed as a procedural administrator/supervisor—an individual in an organisation with recognized formal authority who plans, coordinates and implements the existing directions of the organization however, has identified three critical managerial skills and the last  two happen to be  attributes of competent leadership. These are: technical skills (the ability to perform particular tasks or activities); interpersonal skills (the ability to work well with other people); and conceptual skills (the ability to see the ‘big picture’). Accordingly, the role of a manager demands flexibility, dynamism, management skills as well as leadership quality.
You could say I'm passionate about becoming a successful manager. I love working one on one with people and really enjoy the feeling of accomplishment I get when something I have organized or developed is successful. Management is both art and science. It is the art of making people more effective than they would have been without you. The science is in how you do that. There are four basic pillars: plan, organize, direct, and monitor.There are many things that I will have to learn to achieve this goal, both in the classroom and in the workplace to learn how to develop better people skills and how to influence people in a positive way. I also need to be able to observe people and learn their qualities such as strengths and weaknesses to be able to build quality work teams. Although there are many things that I will need to master to become a successful manager, anyone can be one. Being a good manager is as much an ability you are taught as it is an ability that you are born with.
There will always be a need for quality managers. The actual number of managers is decreasing due to today’s technology, but the need for quality manager, those who can lead themselves as well as others in stressful environments is on the rise.The ability to motivate and influence people through leadership will lead to success. A good manager respects the people on his team, even though they may be different from him. Also, a good manager learns how his team members act when they are faced with challenges. Only by learning to work with team members can a good manager be able to influence their behavior. A successful manager is only as good as the people who make up his team. The manager has to have the skills to read people and select the best people for the job. If I want to succeed in management, I need to learn how to motivate my team, but also how to mold them into a team, working together to accomplish their goals.
Being able to motivate others is another important factor in becoming a successful manager. People generally will do something because they want to do it. While we may chose to do something for others.
In conclusion, I think that I am qualified to be a good manager in the future. I am also willing to try harder, learn more, help others and motivate my fellow classmates and future co-workers. I have vision of the future in Information communication in Mongolia. I hope to be one of the people who help the development  of tomorrow.
