Managers with these 6 skils
by Pankaj Mehta on Aug 26, 2010 03:12 PM

I am agree with the person who suggested these 6 skils:

First one started with - 'If you are a fresh-out-of-college graduate you need to choose one functional area and own it. '

If you have in-depth functional knowledge then only you will gain 3rd, 4th, 5th n 6th skills in a better way.

Overall, I can't disagree on this. The reason is that he is the one who built the organization and takes the responsibility of project (most of the time); he has goals to achieve further more; and goes with people who create "less trouble"!!. Ethics, real spirit or empowering the right, or analysing the resource strength and rest everything unfortunately, secondary!

First you have to get the job following certain set of rules...

Sycophancy will be required once you get the job and join the organisation..start with boot polishing with sugary coated words,most bosses like it !

Agreed, look at the last one. Voicing and being able to stand up to your opinions.

If boss, gets angry, he would say incomptenent, always in disagreement, cant work in teams and of course goes without saying...has no in depth knowledge about you.

There is only one thing to be done on the job. This has a sophisticated word also - perception management. What they think about you alone matters. You can give good impressions like answering the bosses phone in time, say yes to everything, with a but what if.....and finally always have a limitation about anything you do. "No sir, I can send that report next week...if the laptop was there the....." They get the message. make the spend resurces on you. You will automatically be important!!
