• Be proactive/engaging: The leaders will have some objectives to achieve. They cannot plan everything in advance. Several times they have to respond to the needs of the situation which has arisen suddenly. The leader must also be able to have qualities such as being committed, having a missionary zeal, taking responsibility instead of passing the blame to others all while getting the team to engage and follow.
• Creativity: The leader must have the ability to come up with new responses to situations. They must have new ideas and also be able to recognize a good idea when it comes from another source.
• Mental agility: The leader must have the ability to grasp problems quickly, to think of several things at the same time, and assess the whole situation quickly. This quality is necessary for success.
• Learning habits: Effective leaders are independent as learners. They take responsibility for the rightness of what is learned, and are not dependent on others.
• Self-knowledge: Whatever the leader does is affected by their own view of their job and role, objectives, strengths and weaknesses etc. So they must be aware of these attributes. Hence the leader must develop skills of looking at himself critically.
Managerial Skills Required:
• Technical skill: Technical skill is proficiency in a specific activity that involves methods, processes, procedures or techniques (molding, components, finishing).
• Human skills: the ability to work with, understand, motivate, and communicate with associates and groups. It also includes the ability to engage and communicate with people, to set the tone, resolve conflict, and to discipline. Since the leader’s job involves constant interaction with people, human skills are essential.
• Conceptual skills: the ability to understand abstract or general ideas and apply them to specific situations. Conceptual skill usually means understanding how TPI can be affected by a specific activity. Although it may not always be apparent, every action taken in an organization has ramifications elsewhere.
• Diagnostic skills: is the ability to analyze the nature of a problem with people, ideas, things or events. A good diagnosis precedes a recommended solution to a problem. Leaders routinely can be called on to size up a problem in order to take appropriate corrective action. This skill overlaps with the other four managerial skills. This occurs because leaders usually need to use technical, human, conceptual or political skills to make their diagnosis.
• Influencing skills: the ability to acquire the power needed to achieve one’s and TPI’s objectives. Specific influencing skills include being able to win others over to your cause.
