Characteristics of successful and powerful Manager


The managers are the main part of your support team. The right manager can lead you to new levels of success in your career, however choosing the wrong one can be fatal to your growing career so we tried to summarize the main characteristics for successful Manager as following

The successful and powerful manager must be

1- A very organized person: Should know how many tasks there to accomplish and keep up with and how hard it can be. Without organization you will open the door for the career to become a mess.

2- A responsible Person: Should not oversee only everything you are doing, but also everything supports you and your work.

3- A multi-tasker Person: should organize, support, keep you happy and ease up life and career stress off of you so you can do what you do best.

4- A leader: should be Strong and wealthy technical leader over you to satisfy your need. If your manager is a weak leader your career is going to be headed for disaster.

5- A well-connected person: should have good communication skills, While many times none connected individuals have been able to lead careers to superstardom.

6- An ever-alert conscience: should be a far-removed from self-interest, nepotism and bias toward any group or party and not self-opinionated and should not utter coarse words or severe looks to grant rights to those who deserve them.


Finally good manager can take you far while bad management can lead your career into the ground as employee or employer. So give it great thought and consider all of these thoughts the next time you evaluate, hire and treat with Manager .

The real reason of success "Teamwork"

Teamwork is Cooperative effort by the members of a group or team to achieve a common goal or missions and as we all know that it is not used just in work but we can find it in all the needs of life.

Nowadays most of projects require that people work together, so teamwork has become an important concept everywhere. Effective teams are an intermediary goal towards getting good, sustainable results.

It is so deep field and I can got everything about it but there is two questions took my attention

How we apply the teamwork concept?

1- Listen to other people's ideas. When people are allowed to freely express their ideas, these initial ideas will produce other ideas.
2- Ask questions, interact, and discuss the objectives of the team.
3- Treat others with respect and to support their ideas.
4- All the members should trust each other.
5- Help one's coworkers, which is the general theme of teamwork.
6- Share with the team to create an environment of teamwork.
7- For a team to work effectively it is essential team members acquire communication skills and use effective communication channels between one another.
8- Be diplomat and tolerant.

There is a wonderful saying says "A Teamworker is the oil that keeps the machine running...the yeast that helps the dough rise. They are good listeners , diplomats, talented at smoothing over conflicts , help parties and understand each other without becoming confrontational" and unfortunately it is rarely in our society these days.

What are the laws of successful teamwork?

1- The Significance: One Is Too Small a Number to Achieve Greatness
2- The Big Picture: The Goal is More Important Than the Role
3- The Niche: All members Have a Place Where They Add the Most Value
4- The Great Challenge: As the Challenge Escalates, the Need for Teamwork Elevates
5- The Chain: The Strength of the Team Is Impacted by Its Weakest Link
6- The Bad Apple: Rotten Attitudes Ruin a Team
7- The Countability: Team-mates Must Be Able to Count on Each Other When It Counts
8- The Identity: Shared Values Define the Team
9- The Communication: Interaction Fuels Action

Amazing things could be accomplished today if we could get members and leaders to trust and commit to the teamwork process of joint problem solving, consensus decision making and shared leadership.

The lack of teamwork’ is blamed for such a wide variety of everyday business dilemmas -- dilemmas like late delivery, poor quality, a blown budget or poor customer management. That because the people in businesses do not understand the real meaning of teamwork concept.
