Many managers, especially newly promoted managers, are generally stock managers due to lack of experience. They don’t want to manage very carefully. I hope everyone can play freely within their own responsibilities. The characteristics and abilities of each team member are different. Therefore, it is impossible to treat everyone equally, to accurately locate each person and arrange their work according to their own abilities and characteristics. But management is not an easy task. It also has high requirements for managers. Only by doing a good job in self-management can you better manage others. Although this is a simple truth, most managers have not done it. it is good.
Four essential abilities for managers:
1. Communication skills. In order to understand the situation of employee interaction within the organization and listen to the voices of employees, a manager needs to have good communication skills, of which "good at listening" is the most important. Only in this way can the subordinates not be distracted, or dare not make constructive proposals and needs, and managers can also use the subordinates' identity, understanding and resonance to know whether their communication skills are successful.
2. Coordination ability. Managers should be keenly aware of the emotions of their subordinates, and establish channels for dredging and venting. They should not wait until the confrontation deepens and contradictions expand before rushing to deal with and resolve them.
3. Planning and integration capabilities. The planning ability of managers is not focused on short-term strategic planning, but on the formulation of long-term plans.
4. Decision-making and execution ability. In the democratic era, although there are many things that are appropriate for collective decision-making, managers still often have to make independent decisions, including assigning work, coordinating manpower, and resolving employee disputes, which often test the manager's decision-making ability.
Manage time, prioritize important things. Effective managers do not plan from the beginning, but start with time arrangements. Three steps to make time arrangements: 1. Record time 2. Manage time (make a plan) 3. Schedule time uniformly

Making decisions on everything is equivalent to doing nothing. Effective managers know when to make decisions and when not to make decisions. Effective managers only make major decisions. They will divide the problem into routine and strategic. They only make strategic decisions: 1. Find the boundaries of the problem 2. Think carefully about the solution to the problem 3. Value feedback.
