Management Skills
Conceptual Skill = Is the cognitive ability to see the organization as a whole system and the
relationships among its parts. Conceptual skills involve knowing where one's team fits into the total
organization and how the organization fits into the industry, the community, and the broader business
and social environment.
Human Skills = Is the manager's ability to work with and through other people and to work
effectively as a group member. This is demonstrated in the way a manager relates to other people,
including the ability to motivate, facilitate, coordinate, lead, communicate and resolve conflicts.
Technical Skills = Is the understanding of and proficiency in the performance of specific tasks.
Technical skill includes mastery of the methods, techniques and equipment involved in specific
functions such as engineering, manufacturing or finance.
The Definition of Management
Management = The attainment (achievement) of organizational goals in an effective and efficient
manner through planning, organizing, leading and controlling organizational resources.
Effectivity = The degree to which organization achieves a stated goal.
Efficiency = The use of minimal resources (raw materials, money, and people) to produce the desired
volume of output.
Higher effectivity comes with lower efficiency; Higher efficiency comes with lower effectivity.
Trade-off = When companies have to make a choice for higher effectivity at the cost of efficiency or
higher efficiency at the cost of the effectivity.
