How do the functions and the skills of managers differ in emphasis as one's career develops?
Q. How do the functions and the skills of managers differ in emphasis as one's career develops?
Asked by nfr_ms - Thu Apr 30 22:57:06 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. There are likley quite a few possible answers to this question. My 2 cents are below to get you started. Junior managers tend to have to keep a close eye on the day to day functions of the team. They also have to coach new employees through the early stages of their career. Junior managers may participate in more strategic planning sessions, but typically don't take the lead. Senior managers will set direction for a broader group, so are less close to the day to day functions. They also coach employees, but typically provide high level guidance as opposed to more specific coaching, as the people they are coaching are already experienced. Good luck!

Why is there such a strong emphasis on appearance + personality in order to be liked or not?
Q. Some colleagues with whom I worked put more emphasis on being popular and being liked and so would have many not-so-close friends, and not be so 'beautiful'. Why is human nature so shallow? Why can't we see the nature of someone inside and not judge?
