Hard work – “Hard work is about risk. It begins when you deal with the things you would rather not deal with: fear of failure, fear of standing out, fear of rejection. Hard work is about training yourself to leap over this barrier, tunnel under that barrier, and drive through the other barrier and after you’ve done that, to do it again the next day.” For business a hard worker is an essential thing to make the corporate work successfully, because only the hard work can help the manager to reach his full potential and make him feel that he is doing his best for his own and others benefits.

From my interview I can state Brian is hard working person, because he doesn’t sleep much, “only 3 hours per night”, he always switched on and available to respond for e-mail on anytime. It is important for him because his company is located globally in different cities with different time zones which forces him to adapted to communicate with them when in Newry is middle of the night. But because he is hard working person he wants be in “touch” with his companies all the time and has control on them, it’s important for him to not miss any important messages and reports, because it could have bad influence of smoothness how the business is going.

Diplomat – “a person who is tactful and skillful in managing delicate situations, handling people, etc.” Diplomatic skill is important for a business manager, to represent the company and improve company’s image. Diplomatic person is available to deal with different kind of problems in eloquent way and also can win good conditions in contracts or deals with other firms by skilful speeches and good management of arguments.

Leader- “A leader is “a person who influences a group of people towards the achievement of a goal”. A mnemonic for this definition would be 3P’s – Person, People and Purpose as illustrated by the following diagram.” Leader skill is important for business because, the manager with that skill is a main “engine” who is running all work and is even authority for the rest of the workers. Leader is building a team and communication as everyone works together. He is setting the targets and goals that the rest is follow to achieve it and have a big impact on their motivation and development at work.

Team work – is the actions of individuals, brought together for a common purpose or goal, which subordinate the needs of the individual to the needs of the group. In essence, each person on the team puts aside his or her individual needs to work towards the larger group objective. The interactions among the members and the work they complete are called teamwork. Good manager must be a part of a team with all his workers. Effective team work could have many advantages for business, for e.g. Group working on project may put more ideas and effort into work which could finish very successfully for the business. The other thing is that responsibilities are divided between members of the group so they feel less pressure and more comfortable to do they work.

Decision making – The thought process of select a logical choice from among the available options. When trying to make a good decision, a person must weight the positives and negatives of each option, and consider all the alternatives. For effective decision making, a person must be able to forecast the outcome of each option as well, and based on all these items, determine which option is the best for that particular situation.

Ability to take changes and make decision are important skills for the manager of the business, because without taking changes and making decision the grow and expansion of the business are going to sitting in one place. It is also important for manager to consider all consequences and possible effects of made the decision. Motivation – Internal and external factors that stimulate desire and energy in people to be continually interested in and committed to a job, role, or subject, and to exert persistent effort in attaining a goal. Motivation is the energizer of behavior and mother of all action. It results from the interactions among conscious and unconscious factors such as the, intensity of desire or need, incentive or reward value of the goal, and expectations of the individual and of his or her significant others.

I think that motivation skill is one of the most important for the business. It is important for good manager to be self-motivate and can motivate others. This has an impact of efficiently of work, because well motivated employee work harder and put more effort into work. Self-motivation is important, because without curiosity to hard work for manager meant that all company is working like that.
