I think the main constraint is you yourself - your level of preparation and maturity in handling people and resources.

- You build your capacity.\n- To build your managerial capacity you have to get experience from the typical working environment.\n- Certifications are only meant for an additional reference.\n- Dont forget certifications are only added qualifications but not consider it as a required qualification.\n- The RESULT what you are going to contribute to the company is the practical experience.\n- Keep it in mind and please work towards that.\n- All the best.\n-------------

I have been a manager in both large and small organizations and can tell you they are very different.  Both require you to interact with people, and therefore people skills are required and important.  However, often in smaller organizations the manager needs a broader skillset.  In larger organizations, the managers can often "specialize" and be responible for a small part of the process, still having a large span of control.  For example, at the warehouse where I was a manager, I was responsible for a small part of the process - order picking.  That was it.  Just send people out to pick the orders.  They did not pack them, did not put the stuff on the shelves, just took a CD or book off the shelf and put it in a tote to send to the next department.  But I had 45 employees and more than 100 at christmas time.  That was a large organization.  When I managed a warehouse in a smaller organization, I had only 12 employees, but I was responsible for receiving, stocking, shipping as well as payroll and safety and facilities, along with managing my 12 employeees.  So it can be very different being a manager in a small organization compared to a large one.

I am a manager and also have a boss to answer to. I think one of the most important things to have is the ability to listen, and here what is wanted and needed and do your best to get it done. Make sure you boss knows what you are doing to accomplish the task along the way. Keep them involved in progress that is made.

Leaders and managers are responsible for mission (or business) definition, training, goal establishment and resources (financial, material and human).  Up to this point managers and leaders perform the same tasks.  What separates leadership from management is that a leader incentivizes subordinates, sets the example for subordinates and puts their well being above his own. \n\nAll leaders must have management skills to be successful - managers do not need leadership skills to be successful - but it never hurts. \n\nDO NOT MAKE THE MISTAKE THAT EARNING AN MBA MAKES A LEADER.  MOST MBA PROGRAMS DO NOT EVEN ADDRESS THE SUBJECT OF LEADERSHIP.   MANY, BUT CERTAINLY NOT ALL, GOOD LEADERS COME FROM THE ENLISTED AND OFFICER RANKS OF THE ARMED FORCES. TAKE CARE OF THE TROOPS(OR YOUR SUBORDINATES) AND THEY WILL TAKE CARE OF THE MISSION (BUSINESS)

The number one thing is to think of what the COMPANY'S needs are, and try your best to fill those needs.\n\nThink about problems the company faces and try to help solve them.  This doesn't have to be big stuff like global financing and distribution problems, it can be little things like making a list of nearby restaurants that deliver so that when people need to work at their desks through lunch break there is a way for them to order food.\n\nBe proactive, participate in meetings and show that you are trying to help the company avoid possible problems before they become problems.\n\nBe very honest with yourself about your strong and weak points.  When you identify something within your job requirements that you are not very good at, ask your supervisor who in the company IS good at doing this thing, and go learn from that person.

Before you get too tied up in the pure academics of management keep in mid that the best manager are leaders.  They inspire loyalty, motivate people and provide rewards out side of money.\n\nMy only reference is managing/leading people for 25 years while also having  BS, MA and MBA degrees.\n\nYou might think about interviewing or just talking to people you feel are leaders in your school, work, community, etc.

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.

management that works by trying to assess competencies and measure performance based on competency levels.\n\n(you thought i was going to say competent management is a contradiction in terms, didn't you?)

Most good managerial positions require some real life experience because you gonna be dealing with the real world and no more theory like in class.  You can get it if at all you're the only one who has applied for it and whoever is advertising the job is that desperate which in the present  modern world doesn't seem to happen very often. There is a lotta competition out there and you better be ready when the opportunity pops up. You are most likely to start off as a junior manager.  I think it is more comfortable from that position while you're learning from the seniors.

I've been there. It can get pretty complicated and feelings can get confused. let your friends know that as a manager your first obligation is to the company. Let them know that you value their friendship but dont want your friendship to hinder your performance at work. Usually most "good" friends can respect that if not then thats a whole other ball game.

No.  An effective manager will provide positive and negative feedback.  However, the negative feedback should be constructive, not just "You suck at x, y, and z."  Employees need to know what is good and what is bad regarding their work.  If they never heard the negative side, they would never know what needs improving.

It depends on what the 4 functions of management are.  Try reading the chapter like a good student.
