Is Management for you ?
As you learned Section 7 of this chapter, many managers begin their careers in management with apecific ideas about what it means to be the boss. Although you may want to be a manager because of excitement , status, power, or rewards ,knowing how to manage is not automatic; it requires specific skills and competencies ,as well as desire . This assessment is meant to establish your baseline ability in the skills covered in the chapter .It will not tell you wherther you should or should not be a manager, or whether you have “what it take “ to be a manager. It will, however, give you feedbook on general skills that influence your overall managerial style. Be candid as you complete the assessment by circling the appropriate responscs.
