A manager, either from IT or any other subject, must have a fundamental characteristic: he/she must be able at all times to translate technical requirements in contribution for the business and vice-versa.

 

As good as your technical skills may be, if you do not think "business" than your managerial potential is not being fully exploited.

I think "Manager" is not just a name , in fact its a potential that a person has. u wont be a good Project manager with licenses .

1st of all you have to earn enough knowledge about the projects that you are workin on and you may will work on.

2nd , you have to undrestand your employer and clients concentration.

I agree with Mr. Roham Rousta in his answer especially in

"I think Manager is not just a name , in fact its a potential that a person has. u wont be a good Project manager with licenses".

Sure you need to take some Management training but after that it is a matter of potential!

I hope you good luck.
