Is people management a needed skill for all managers?

[Good-Person]

Well, if you ask me, then I must say that each and every kind of manager in any organisation is kind of a manager who manages people. The Human Resource department is only responsible for hiring people and you can say that they are also responsible for managing people. However, a manager who manages people who are already hired are also managing people obviously. For example, a manager might be managing and monitoring an assistant manager who is below him in the rank.

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?

Of course, Yes. A manager needs to be able to manage, coordinate, direct, etc. All these are done towards people and so he must know how to relate very well with people

The reason why you are a manager in the first place aactually is because there are other people for youto watch after so for you to be a good manager you must know how to manage people in the work place and to me it should even be the number one skill you should watch out for if you need a manger.
