Management Skills

What are the skills of good management?

I would be a fool to think I know all of them.

But let's make a start and this section of Organized Living World will expand.

I think management skills include business skills, communication skills, and leadership skills.

Ken Blanchard uses the acronym PERFORM to explain the necessary characteristics of high performing teams.

Your role in management is to develop the skills necessary to facilitate PERFORM.

• Purpose and Values
• Empowerment
• Relationships and communication
• Flexibility
• Optimal Performance
• Recognition and Appreciation
• Morale

It takes a long while to develop mature management skills, but with a little focussed direction, you can make giant in-roads very quickly.
