Is management an innate trait or an acquired skill? This is a question that has always occupied the minds of many people. In my twenty years of experience in various business fields, I have come to believe that the answer to this question is a combination of both. Management comes from both inside and outside.
Innate leadership refers to the abilities that a person displays from childhood or adolescence: leadership, initiative, responsibility, and decision-making. These qualities cannot be simply learned, but must be inherent in the individual. But that is only half the battle.
In my teenage years, when I started my first business assembling home computers, I realized that passion and talent alone are not enough. You need to learn skills. Marketing, negotiation, time management, financial planning, and even human relations are things that come with experience, training, and study.
This is where acquisition management comes in. You can have the best ideas, but without the execution skills, you’ll lose them. Along the way, I’ve had to learn new things over and over again, from the rules of international financing to the art of persuasion.
It is the combination of innate and acquired leadership that makes a true leader. Someone who makes decisions from their heart and acts with logic. Someone who draws inspiration from past experiences and is always ready to learn.
Another important point is that management without ethics is meaningless. A true manager is not someone who only thinks about profit, but someone who creates value. This value can be for employees, customers, society, or even a better future.
My journey from a tech-savvy teenager to an international business strategist has been full of ups and downs, but each step has been a lesson that has led me to a deeper understanding of the concept of management.
So if you want to be a manager, first know yourself. See what you have inside you that can take you forward. Then seek out learning, experience, and failure. Because each of these elements are bricks to build your leadership structure.
