What I Know

Different Types of Managers

How do you describe your future self as a manager? The following
are the seven types of manager based on personality and management style.
Which among these types of managers will you be?

What type of manager will you be?

The Problem-solving Manager focuses on

providing solution to every problem of the company.
This manager also concentrates on achieving the
company's goals. However, managers of this type
sometimes tend to overdo the task of solving every
problem which affects his or her overall performance.

The Pitchfork Manager threatens employees to work

towards a goal. This manager employs fear tactics and
uses an "iron hand" to push employees for results to
avoid consequences. He or she is characterized as tough
and rude.

The Pontificating Manager neither follows any strategy

nor prepares for any situation or task and usually ends up
with inconsistent results. The strength of this manager is
his or her ability to make people feel at ease when he or she
is around since listening to others is second nature to him
or her. However, this over- friendliness usually hinders his
or her leadership decisions and results in a less systematic
approach to problems therefore affecting his or her overall
performance.

MOTIVATION
The Presumptuous Manager thinks only of himself or
herself. This type of manager is not a team player and usually
works for personal gain or interest. He or she breeds unhealthy
competition instead of cooperation and teamwork. This type of
manager is characterized as being too proud and overconfident
and has the tendency to compete with the members of the team.
More often than not, members of the team resign or leave the
company because of poor management.
The Perfect Manager is open to change and personal
growth. However, he or she can be very mechanical and
may lack the interpersonal skills to interact more closely
with his or her team members. He or she just
concentrates on facts and figures, for example, about the
product or service being offered.

The Passive Manager wants to please everyone

and make the team members happy. However, being
a crowd pleaser becomes a hindrance because of his
or her lack of drive and assertiveness to manage the
team. This type of manager is described as very timid
in his or her approach to avoid any confrontation with
anyone especially from the members of his or her
team.

The Proactive Manager possesses the good qualities

of the other types of managers. He or she has the drive
of the problem-solving manager to spearhead solutions,
the persistence of the pitchfork manager, the
enthusiasm of the pontificating manager, the
confidence of the presumptuous manager, the passion
of the perfect manager for continued growth, and the
desire of the passive manager to serve.

Every manager should strive to become a proactive manager who embodies

the true traits of an outstanding manager.

2 Roles of a Manager

A manager wears many hats. Not only is a manager a team leader, but he or she is also
a planner, organizer, cheerleader, coach, problem solver, and decision maker — all
rolled into one. And these are just a few of a manager's roles.

What’s In

Activity 2 : Manager or Leader?

Even though in the corporate world the terms ‘manager’ or ‘leader’ are used
Interchangeably, these are very distinct roles.

Directions. From the instructions below, write down own thoughts.

1. Prepare two bond papers
2. Label the first bond paper as “Manager”
3. Label the second bond paper as “Leader”
4. In each bond paper, you will write statements describing management behavior
on the other hand, write the leadership behavior with the label “Leader”.

For example, the ‘manager’ table may contain statements such as “schedules work to be done”
or “delegates tasks”. On the other hand, statements in the ‘leader’ table could be “motivating
staff” and “creating culture”.

The purpose of this activity is to demonstrate to managers the difference between

management versus leadership, and show that while ‘every leader can be a manager,
not every manager can be a leader’. Prove that leadership behaviors, managers begin
the process of becoming a successful leader.

MANAGERIAL SKILLS
1. Conceptual Skills- Conceptual skills enable managers to think of possible solutions to complex
problems. Top level managers must have these conceptual skills in order to be successful in their
work.
2. Human Skills – Human skills enable managers in all levels to relate well with people.
3. Technical Skills- Technical skills are also important for managers for them to perform their tasks
with proficiency with the use of their expertise.
TECHNICAL SKILLS:

Technical skills are the skills necessary to accomplish or

understand the specific kind of work being done in an organization.
Technical skills are especially important for first line managers. These Page 8
managers spend most of their time training subordinates and answering
question about work related problems. They must know how to perform
tasks assigned to those they supervise if they are to be effective managers.

INTERPERSONAL SKILLS:

Managers spend considerable time interacting with people both

inside and outside the organization. For obvious reasons then the manager
also needs interpersonal skills- the ability to communicate with,
understand and motivate both individuals and groups. As a manager climbs
the organizational ladder, he or she must be able to get along with
subordinates, peers and those at higher level of the organization. Because of
the multitude of roles manager must fulfill, a manager must able to work
with suppliers, customers, investors, and others outside of the organization.
Although some managers have succeeded with poor interpersonal skills, a
manager who has good interpersonal skills is likely to be more successful.

CONCEPTUAL SKILLS:

Conceptual skills depend on the manager’s ability to think in the abstract.

Managers need the mental capacity to understand the overall working of the
organization and its environment, to grasp how all the part of the organization fit
together, and view the organization in a holistic manner. This allows them to think
strategically, to see the ‘big picture’, and to make broad based decisions that serve the
overall organization.

DIAGNOSTIC SKILLS:

Successful managers also possess diagnostic skills, or skills that

enable a manager to visualize the most appropriate response to a situation. A
physician diagnoses a patient illness by analyzing symptoms and determining
their probable cause. Similarly, a manager can diagnose and analyze a problem
in the organization by studying its symptoms and then developing a solution.

COMMUNICATION SKILLS:

Communication skills refer to the manager’s ability both to effectively convey

ideas and information to others and to effectively receive ideas and information from
Page 9

others. This skill enables a manager to transmit ideas to subordinates so that they
know what is expected, to coordinate work with peers and colleagues so that they
work well together properly, and to keep higher level managers informed about what
 SAINT JOSEPH ACADEMY

DECISION- MAKING SKILLS:

Effective managers also have good decision-making skills. Decision making

skills refers to the manager’s ability to correctly recognize and define problems and
opportunities and to then select an appropriate course of action to solve the problems
and capitalize on opportunities.
No manager makes the right decision all the time. However, effective managers make
good decision most of the time. And when they do make a bad decision, they usually
recognize their mistake quickly and then make good decision to recover with as little
cost or damage to their organization as possible.

TIME MANAGEMENT SKILLS:

Finally, effective managers usually good time management skills. Time

management skills refer to the manager’s ability to prioritize work, to work effectively,
and to delegate appropriately. As already noted, managers face many different
pressures and challenges. It is too easy for a manager to get bogged down doing work
that can easily be postponed or delegated to others. When this happens,
unfortunately, more pressing and higher priority work may get neglected.

Although above described skills are essential for managers, their relative importance tends to vary by level
of managerial responsibility.

Business and management educators are increasingly interested in helping people acquire technical,
human, and conceptual skills, and develop specific competencies, or specialized skills, which contribute to
high performance in a management job.
