A
professional manager is one
who is guided in his work & action
by a set of core principles that are internally consistent and non - violative of
statutory and legal provisions.
who is consistent in the yardstick he
applies for dealing with people and situations.
who has a “broad
framework” for analysing, judging,
decision-making and taking
actions, i.e. one who is not arbitrary and “seasonal”
in the practice of management.
who,
in addition to complying with legal and statutory provisions, also has a set of ethical and moral principles that he follows, which are
“fair” to those affected by
his decision-making and action.
who is willing to stand up for what he
considers right / correct &
is not afraid to express an
“unpopular” view point nor
afraid to voice an opinion that doesn’t
agree with that of his boss.
who,
on a matter of principle, is
willing to quit rather than
“submit” or “go along”
with what he considers wrong or unethical or immoral or illegal.
who,
while being steadfast in sticking to his principles is, himself,
always open to criticism, and
willing to change his ways when he discovers that they are wrong or outdated.
who,
on his own initiative, seeks to
enlarge his own body of knowledge or enrich his fund of experience through
honestly acknowledged learning from others
--- be they his superiors, peers,
subordinates or professional colleagues.
who has the vision to see, beyond his own job or company, to the larger
interest / requirements / good
of his immediate community and society at large.
