It doesnt take much to be a manager, especially if someone is programmed into doing what they set out to do, however it takes an exceptional manager to be able to go into a business into which they have little to no experience in that particular area of work and confidently and effectively re-vamp and plan a good and solid plan of action to turn the business successful. A person who managed a retail store wisely and effectively is just as capable as changing their area of expertise around and managing a small real estate company. Regardless of any managers particular field of expertise change is what is needed to maintain an exceptional turnaround in any failing division of a company.
As a person with much experience in the managerial world, I know the organizational structure plan is the same regardless of what is being managed. Organizational structure is a companys framework if you will, which essentially is what jobs are divided, grouped and coordinated into. When a manager has his hands in the development of an organizations structure, they are what basically design the change in the organization (AIU Online, 2012).
A managers drive will essentially be what makes a company succeed or fail. A good manager however will know how to lead and how to help her employees adopt the spirit of success. A manager who possess desire, drive and spirit will always be able and willing to plan, organize, and will always be an effective and fair leader. Managers who are familiar with leading any sort of business or organization will be able to share his vision of the new organizational structure by re-vamping the employees, changing the tasks around that the current employees have, also knowing that adjustments that need to be made to the functions and the processes.
As a new manager in a particularly new area of business I feel responsible to expose the outdated product line and seek to change the product or service the organization provides into a more “today” or user friendly arena. For Real Estate it is being up to date on homes for rent or sale, staying abreast on the housing trends as well as what demographic wants what. Being in the “know” is critical to any organizations success. Along with product lines, communication is essential in an organization. Adversarial communication is unacceptable and should never be tolerated in the world of business. Communication lines must always be open and very clear. With this everyone will know their part without any grey area. This brings all employees on the same level playing field and will result in less confusion. Everyone should know their job, their area as well as what everyone else is doing or will do. The more that is exposed the clearer the lines of communication.
