What kind of manager I am.

I missed the classes last week (because I caught a cold) and didn’t participate in the activity and the test which would determinate my management personality. But professor gave me the description of all 4 dimensions of behavior that were in that test and told me just to choose one myself…

I think I am “I” (influence). First of all I have really big entrepreneurial spirit. I always have some business ideas and usually I can persuade my friends (or people I know) that the ideas will be successful. I also like entertaining people and I am an optimist in general. I appreciate freedom of expression and democratic relationships. The things I need to gain to be more effective also match, like I need more control of time, and work on priorities and deadlines.

If I have to hire people for my business, I will definitely hire people with the qualities described in the type of management. I would need people who can concentrate on tasks, take logical approach, seek facts, and so on. I think it is because I have a lot of ideas, but sometimes don’t have patience to make them happen. So, to help me with developing my company, I would need people who can concentrate on things and just do it.

Again, I didn’t take the test in class, I just choose this management type from the list because I think it fits me the most. Also, I think that every entrepreneur should have at least some abilities listed in this type of management behavior.
