Is people management a needed skill for all managers?

[GIFTMICHAEL]

All these things happen because of bad leadership and lack of proper arrangement in the system ,if they are serious they can arrange all these things in a point that no police will ever get a bribe from anyone again.

Yes, the system is corrupt, for them to arrange the country to suiting your own thought will take a long time cos politicians started the corruption.

 

[Setfragil]

You are right. This people management skills is indeed mandatory for the manager to possess. They do not have the right to become manager, if they do not have people management skills.

Anybody that is employ to manage a business without having the ability to manage the business employees will struggle a lot to get the best from his employees.

It is somewhat shocking that Managing Directors feel it is only right for Human Resources Persons (HR) to possess people management skills as if they (MD) are not supposed to be well equipped with this particular skill.

What's your take as an individual on this?

In any organization managing people is not easy that is why before you attain any managing position, you would have master the act managing both people and resources

 

[Setho]

If you are a manager in a place even if it doesn't warrant that you are going to be managing people you should have basic and entry-level people management skill.

 

[Grant]

It's very important, because if you have no management skills, you will also fail other important tasks that require management to take care of. It's one thing to manage your workers, but to manage the business, taxes, payments, etc can be a burden, and if you don't have the necessary skills, then why are you even in there?

Yes, the system is corrupt, for them to arrange the country to suiting your own thought will take a long time cos politicians started the corruption.

The responsibility of managing people shouldn't be the responsible of the human resource person alone as a managing director both the people and the resources are under your control

 

[Psalmseen]

Definitely Yes! All managers must posses the skill of human or people management. Because a manager doesn't just manage the business, he's managing the people, staffs and that's the most difficult

Yes, the Chinese are trying their best to develop their own country and improve their economy and rank in order to attract foreign investors and build a good name, Africans are lagging behind.

 

[Snazzy001]

in fact it is the first and the most necessary skill needed by a manager because you cannot succeed if you cannot manage people and material

 

[Setfragil]

Your staff are the people that works with your business. It is good to know how to manage them to your own business advantage without abusing social well-being.

 

[jeff87]

Knowing how to manage people is very important in any set up of business or company because it is people you are dealing with not other beings.

That is correct. In business you are dealing with human beings with human emotions. They are not machine or robots.

 

[Jlife]

Yes, the Chinese are trying their best to develop their own country and improve their economy and rank in order to attract foreign investors and build a good name, Africans are lagging behind.

That is just the thing and we are just thousands years behind the time and a lot of countries are moving far in terms of technology and advancement and Africa is one of the most poorest and backward continents in the world.
