What Is a Manager?
Managers are responsible for making and carrying out decisions. A personnel manager is in charge of hiring, training and appraising the employees. A financial manager is a person who is responsible for finance. An operations manager coordinates the production of goods and services. A marketing manager is busy with advertising, promotion and sales.
Almost everything a manager does involves decision making. When a problem exists, a manager has to make a decision to solve it. In decision-making there is always some risk. Managing is a responsible and hard job. There is a lot to be done and little time to do it. In all types of organizations managerial efficiency depends on manager’s analytic, administrative and interpersonal skills.
The responsibility of any individual in a company depends on the position that he or she occupies. Managers, for example, are responsible for leading the people who are called subordinates. To do this successfully, they must use their authority, which is the right to take decisions and give orders.
