Inside the Mind of a Manager

Again today i've experienced the very reason why managers get to paid much.
At least a lot more than the rest.
There are a huge ammount of skills needed by a Manager.
And a huge ammount of Responsibilities is the background for it.

A Manager has to have:

Phsycological Skills
While he manage people to work his way he has to know how to say thing and when. For if he doesnt his employee would back down on it. Thus Phsycological skills are needed when making a decision. How it effects on our human resources later on should be advised before the decision is taken.
Its not a matter of "What", it's about "How"

Financial Skills
A manager can not decide or plan anything without having thoughts on how deep would it touch the cash. Every decision and Plan should be thinked of thoroughly.
Remember like it or not,
Money IS the Fuel for the Vehicle. Without it, you wont go anywhere.

Managerial Skills
It is in the word "Manager" to MANAGE people. One has to have the skill to get people moving and doing things exactly like he wants it. A manager has planned things to run effectively as the company wants it. Also remember that a good manager is a man who could Push one to the limit and drain all potential in the employee.
So if the steer couldnt move the wheel then there's a big problem.

Forecasting Skills
He/ She makes plan, Do things, makes deals, decides things, let go some, get new some, sometimes, admit it. By intuition.
Why? There are things that you cant see, and that is the future. One can only Forecast.
How do you Forecast? By gathering details and facts that exist present day and before. Read the patterns, read the signs, look ahead and Forecast, Will it happen again? What will happen next. A continuous Forecasting activity would create a Template Memory held deep within your conscience. When needed, it will soon Pop Up.
It is called Intuition.

To Blend all elements so it would work in 1 rythme is a Motor called: Leadership.
The Gear, is Creativity, Coolness, Broadthinking, and Parenting.
The Fuel as said before, Money.
The Rider,

You.
