What I thinks is as below :
Top Management : Conceptual Skills
Middle Management : Human Relations Skills
Supervisory Management : Technical Skills
I am fully agree with Mr. Arinjay Dadhich's answer
Top management focus on organisational growth (strategy). Middle management focus on their department(as per short term plan). The supervisor focus on his assignment. When it comes to soft skill for each of the above management, the strategy manager needs a bird view and for middle level, a telescopic view and for supervisory, it is microscopic.
Supervisory Management : Human Relations SkillsMiddle Management : supervision Skills & execution abilities Generally Top Management : Leadership management skills
Yes, as mr. Arinjay Dadhich
you have answered the story,,,, i will add my ex boss words about lower managers,,,, DO NOT USE YOUR BRAIN , USE YOUR LEGS ,, I GOT GOOD BRAIN TO THINK ON YOUR BEHALF.
Top management need to have proven skills in negotiations, delegations, envisioning, direction setting, balance and compromise, conflict management, crisis management, executive-level communication skills, social relations with key stakeholders, board of directors, public media, governaent and regualtory authorities, ... etc ... etc
In short they need the skills that match their role/function as top management of the organization operating at the strategic level, setting direction, making key decisions, solving prime conflicts and addressing key issues at the overall company level
Middle-Management needs to have good supervisory/administrative skills to ensure the business model is execured properly and correctly at the operational and tactical levels. Successful/Effective middle management need to have the true M.A.N.A.G.E.R (7 skills/attributes) that would be needed to deal with the people dimension in the best way possible.
Supervisory Management is more concered with day-to-day operations. Hence they need to be good team workers, observe company's own policis/governance guidelines while executing the business model on the ground in real world. Supervisory control in this definition touches all operational aspects across the entire organization structure and its functions from A to Z.
I agree with Mr. ARINJAY
Top, Middle or Supervisory - At any position one is recruited because he/ she is qualified and eligible.
Secondly, after being recruited, one can stay and grow through the position only through Committment & Humility.
Committment is required to stay focussed and know your goals.
Humility is required to stay along with your team. It is the first and most essential quality of a Leader.
These2 managerial skills are most important at any given level of ones' career.
Thank you.
