A manager is someone who know the needs of the organization and who understands how the needs, goals, and objectives of the business venture can be achieved. A manage is more or less an entrepreneur, I will describe an entrepreneur as someone who gets the best of land, capital and a labour, and sometimes the manager also get some other intelligent entrepreneurs to work with him in order to achieve organizational goals and objections. As a manager it is your duty to make sure that the scare resources in the organization is effectively and efficiently utilized to achieve the best results.

The manager takes time to also understand the behaviour of his staffs working under him or her so as to identify any kimd of changes in their behaviour that may affect their level of productivity to work. The manage should be someone that listens to the complaint and suggestions of his or her staffs. And a manage is someone how gives directives as at when due.

The manage should also be someone who listens to the complaint of their clients and also makes a very quick amends. The manager should be someone who is focused and goal oriented. Manager is someone who carries everyone along.
