Management roles and skills.Managerial RolesTo meet the many demands of performing their functions, managers assume multiple roles. A role is an organized set of behaviors. Henry Mintzberg (1973) has identified ten Sub roles common to the work of all managers. The ten roles are divided into three groups: interpersonal, informational, and decisional.According to Mintzberg (1973), managerial roles are as follows:1. Informational roles2. Decisional roles3. Interpersonal roles1. Informational roles: This involves the role of assimilating and disseminating information as and when required. Following are the main sub-roles, which managers often perform:a. Monitor-collecting information from organizations, both from inside and outside of the organization.b. Disseminator-communicating information to organizational membersc. Spokesperson-representing the organization to outsiders2. Decisional roles: It involves decision making. Again, this role can be subdivided in to the following:a. Entrepreneur-initiating new ideas to improve organizational performanceb. Disturbance handlers-taking corrective action to cope with adverse situationc. Resource allocators-allocating human, physical, and monetary resourcesd. Negotiator - negotiating with trade unions, or any other stakeholders3. Interpersonal roles : This role involves activities with people working in the organization. Thisis supportive role for informational and decisional roles. Interpersonal roles can be categorizedunder three subheadings:a. Figurehead-Ceremonial and symbolic roleb. Leadership-leading organization in terms of recruiting, motivating etc.c. Liaison-liasoning with external bodies and public relations activities.Management SkillsA manager's job is varied and complex. Managers need certain skills to perform the duties and activities associated with being a manager. What type of skills does a manager need? Robert L. Katz (1974) found that managers needed three essential management skills1. Technical2. Human3. ConceptualTechnical skills: The ability is to apply specialized knowledge or expertise. All jobs require some specialized expertise, and many people develop their technical skills on the job. Vocational and on the job training programs can be used to develop this type of skill.Human Skill : This is the ability to work with, understand and motivate other people (both individually and a group). This requires sensitivity towards others issues and concerns. People, who are proficient in technical skill, but not with interpersonal skills, may face difficulty to manage their subordinates. To acquire the Human Skill, it is pertinent to recognize the feelings and sentiments of others, ability to motivate others even in adverse situation, and communicate own feelings to others in a positive and inspiring way.Conceptual Skill : This is an ability to critically analyze, diagnose a situation and forward a feasible solution. It requires creative thinking, generating options and choosing the best available option. A mark of a good leader is to be able to provide consistent motivation to his team encouraging them to attain excellence and quality in their performance. A good leader is always looking for ways to improve production and standards. Here are six management skills you can develop as a leader in working to create a quality effective team.1. ObservationThis is an important aspect that often gets neglected due the demands on a leader's time and schedule. Observation and regular visits to the work environment are a priority and should be scheduled into the calendar. Observing employees at work, the procedures, interaction and work flow is foundational to implementing adjustments to improve results. To have credibility, a leader needs to be seen and be known to be up to date with what is happening in the work place.2. Monitor Employee PerformanceEmployee performance needs to be monitored in mutually accepted ways. Policies and procedures need to be clear. Conferencing should be on a regular basis and not just when there is a problem. Assessments and evaluations should not be merely all formality or viewed a necessary paperwork to be done and filed away. Individual and group conferencing should be undertaken not only to monitor performance, but with the expectation of on going professional development and support. There should be frequent encouragement and clear criteria for on going goals both for the group and individual.3. Implementation of Professional Development ProgramsA good leader evaluates weaknesses and provides training and development strategies to strengthen the weaker skills in the team.4. Demonstrates Working Knowledge and ExpertiseGood leadership comes from a place of strong knowledge and experience of the production and process leading to results. If a leader does not possess all the expertise and knowledge personally, then regular consultations with experts involved in the departments should be held. This is important in order to maintain an accurate and informed overall picture.5. Good Decision MakingGood leadership is characterized by the ability to make good decisions. A leader considers all the different factors before making a decision. Clear firm decisions, combined with the willingness and flexibility to adapt and adjust decisions when necessary, create confidence in the leadership.6. Ability to Conduct and Evaluate ResearchOn going review and research is vital in order to keep on the cutting edge in business. While managing the present to ensure on going excellence in product and performance, a good leader is also able to look towards the future. Conducting and evaluating research is an important way of planning and being prepared for the future.Excellent leadership is always pro active rather than reactive. By developing these six managerial skills builds a solid foundation for success.
