A manager develops people, including himself or herself (and) helps them to grow and

become bigger and richer persons. Peter Drucker

A number of different terms are often used instead of the term ‘manager’, including ‘director’, ‘administrator’ and ‘presi-dent’. The term ‘manager’ is used more frequently in profit-making organizations, while the others are used more widely in government and non-profit organizations such as universities, hos-pitals and social work agencies.

In its broad meaning the term ‘managers’ applies to the peo-ple who are responsible for making and carrying out decisions with-in a certain system. A personnel manager directly supervises peo-ple in an organization. Financial manager is a person who is re-sponsible for finance. A sales manager is responsible for selling of goods. A marketing manager is responsible for promotion of products on the market.

Almost everything a manager does involves decision-making. When a problem exists a manager has to make a decision to solve it. In decision-making there is always some uncertainty and risk.

The characteristics of management often vary according to national culture, which can determine how managers are trained, how they lead people and how they approach their jobs.

The amount of responsibility of any individual in a company depends on the position that he or she occupies in its hierarchy. Managers, for example, are responsible for leading the people di-rectly under them, who are called subordinates. To do this success-fully, they must use their authority, which is the right to take deci-sions and give orders. Managers often delegate authority. This means that employees at lower levels in the company hierarchy can use their initiative to make decisions without asking their manager.
