Request Question for only those who works in the area of Management/Business

As NUF is a place that many do strange and totally non related questions to novels, here I am with mine~

I'm a student in management and I'm looking for those who works in management/business/officer/director/administrator/controller/CEO to answer some simply questions:

1. In this globalized era which is the profile of a manager/administrator?
2. Which are the essential abilities for this new age?
3. What do you do? Which type of company do you work (doesn't need to say the name)? Which country?

Please, only those who works in that area..... unless you want to ask some relative to answer....
It can be pm.
This one thanks for your collaboration!

this is interesting

 

Sorry, I’ve only managed as a team leader/ manager for maybe around 40 people. But if that’s enough I’ll give you my advice.

 

No, it's alright!
All are valued!

 

I'd like to answer these sadly too tired and im on my phone

 

1. I don't understand the first question.
2. The ability to find or create opportunity.
3. I work as a manager in a gas distribution agency.

 

Something like: daring, decisive, observant, curious, organized, leader, and so on.

 

I'm also a student of management, but i would like to give an answer based on my study and my experience when i'm on apprenticeship, so here it is:

1. manager is an employee who is responsible for planning, directing and overseeing the operations and fiscal health of a business unit, division, department, or an operating unit within an organization. The manager is responsible for overseeing and leading the work of a group of people in many instances.

2. * Operating Computer
* Ms. Office (ex. Excel, PP, Publisher, etc)
* Communication Skill
* Multi Language (certificated)
* Leading skill

3. - work as a manager on IT Dept, Paper Factory (apprenticeship)

I've also worked elsewhere, but just been an observer.
I'm sorry if i'm not give you a satisfying answer .

 

It depends on the what kind of business the company is. For example : my agency is a sub-contractor for state-owned enterprise, so the ability to ass-kissing (ok, that's a bit... let's call it having a good network) is important.

Not only ass-kissing the boss, having an 'insider' in that SOE is also important (it's harder to please the eunuchs than the emperor) so we can get information fast since a SOE often changing their policy every time they change the bigwig. We have to 'adapt' faster even before the policy is announced since they want the result 'fast' and looking for 'flaws' in their subs and using many excuses to cut the quota and sending them to other agencies that... uh, 'obeying the regulation' (y'know what I mean).

You see those dramas about putting a spy or insider in other company? At least that's based on real story (exaggerated though, it's not that vicious until making companies bankrupt).
