In order to be an effective manager, you need to be a good leader.  In my opinion, the words manager and leader are synonymous in the business world.  Managers (leaders) must have a thorough knowledge of the job, organize and motivate subordinates to pursue a common goal, direct for the future, etc.  But one of the most important characteristics is role modeling.  Leaders must be a good role model for their followers (i.e. managers must be a good role model for their subordinates)--if they want their followers to act a certain way, they must project that image for them.

1. Good communicator - keeps you aware of what is going on in the business, and is very clear when giving direction\n\n2. Non-threatening management style.  Managers who threaten are trying to do what's best for ~their~ career, not yours.  I'd want a manager with a collaborative style, who is committed to developing me and helping me get promoted.\n\n3. A leader who rewards good work with new challenges and opportunities.  If I do well at something, I want my manager to tell me I did well, and give me some say in what I do next - and help develop areas I want to develop.

All the typical characteristics, such as hard-working, dependable, independent, and creative.  Shows leadership, willingness to do work above and beyond what's necessary to benefit the company, and on and on.  Basically, someone who will benefit the company a bit and doesn't really care about pay.  That's an almost perfect one.  A good one has a few of these qualities and gets along with everyone else, basically.
