Excerpt

The daily roles a manager fulfills within an organization are numerous and diverse. Although certain skills, such as emotional intelligence and communication, are innate for some managers, many, including staff management and oversight of personnel performance issues, must be learned. In this chapter, one of the most important roles of a manager is explored, the supervision and care of humans. As managers of human resources, we need to recruit, develop, and retain people with the knowledge and skills necessary to function at a level that will aid in achieving organizational goals (Jones et al. 2010a).
