3. Management Skills Third way of looking at the mgmt process is by examining the kinds of skills required to perform a particular job

– Conceptual skills- help mgrs understand how different parts of a business relate to one another and to the business as a whole

– Human relations skills- mgrs need to understand and work well with people

– Technical skills- specific abilities that ppl use to perform their jobs

Bell Ringer – “Respond” pg. 16

Do you think a manager can succeed without conceptual, human relations, or technical skills? Why or why not?

Principles of Management pg. 16

Managers often use certain rules when deciding how to run their businesses, known as “principles of management”

Principle Is a basic law or truth

You're the boss in a predominantly male environment. The presence of a new female employee stirs up conflict because your company has not had a chance to conduct sensitivity training. Some of your male employees make inappropriate remarks to your new employee. She complains to you; in response, you sanction those responsible for the conduct. You also wonder if it would be wise to move your new female employee to another position where she would be less likely to draw attention

Advertisements for Managers!Create a wanted ad for each of the three levels of management we discussed

Use program of your choice to create 1 page/slide and put all three ads on one screen, as if in a newspaper

The ad should include a made up job opening which lists the type of work this manager would be required to do and the characteristics needed for this type of career, don’t forget hourly wage/salary!

Be sure to make it look like an ad you would see in the newspaper, with box around it etc.

Make sure it is 1 page/1 slide. Save it to your Drive folder for this class in a format I can view on a PC
