Hi!
Can you name the most essential qualities a real manager should have?
Or everything depends upon the situation and people he works with?

Hi, dear starter. I think everything depends on his own abilities to use prevalent situation and people he works with... And such thing as "good luck" is always needed! ;)
Of people; matching the company's needs with the employees!
And comparing resources too!
For first line managers:Quote:

- Learn to manage each person differently based on their needs and motivation. Ask what is in it for them.
- Be flexible.
- Micromanage only when you have to.
- Be fair to all. Employees respect fair manager not the brown noser.
- Always be honest. Employees are just smart as you and they can smell incereity, lies, and politics.
I will post more when I am more inspired to post. Good luck.
A good manager communicates the mission and goals of the organization and establishes a plan to accomplish those goals. Managing people is easy... all you have to do is lead the way:-)
Balancing one's priorities is the key. That will bring clarity in the situation you are handling.
Hi,
Being retired now, I was a manager for over 20 yrs.
A good manager is one who can leave the job for whatever reasons, trips, long 2 day meetings, etc, and when he/she comes back to the job, everything is still running as normal. Question asked is "Oh, were you gone?"
A good manager knows key people, treats all the same according to company policies and rules, and know how to delegate authority and responsibilities. He/she knows how to organize, plan well, and get things done, not being overwhelmed with too much to do, due to good planning.
A couple of essentials is having your own act together making sure your people have what they need to get the job done and keeping other people off their back. If somebody wants something done, or isn't happy with something, they come to you, not your people. Each person needs to have one supervisor and be able to concentrate on doing what they want.
What managers can do ?
Manage; By....with.....and through......people.
