Subject: MBA aptitude
Date: 11-Apr-2003
Question: Dear Sir/Madam,
I have read and heard many people say that one must take up a career that fits one's aptitude. Can you please mention a list of traits one must have (and/or develop) in order to become a good manager. An MBA is just a course. a knowledge addition. Management is skill. I mean, can a guy who even finds it difficult to manage his day to day activities, train himself to be a successful manager? Anyway, management is a day to day necessity for success in whatever vocation one may be in. So could you please provide some url/ book name where practical management is covered. ("7 habits" according to me is a waste of time). Thank you.
Answer: Manager must be a Team worker, visionary, planner, organizer and motivator. Above all must be competent to take an overall big picture view. Very good communication skills and leadership skills.

Your counsel.
