Questioning management

The realm of management is very wide. Want to get answers to a few questions and confusion the IT world has created.

My focus here is about project management - internal as well as external(client).

A manager (or whatever "name" you give), at onsite does the following or more:
1. Project Estimation and management
2. People Management
a. Internal (project team)
b. External (Client)

What should be the characteristics of a true global manager? Everything concludes with the following:
1. Communication
2. Analytical skills
3. People management skills

The world looks for only the first 2 parameters, more often the second one. Communication for a global manager is vital which at times is ignored.

But what is more disgusting is that the third parameter - People Management Skill is all the time neglected and never comes to the table. Not that people are ignorant about it's importance. So can't reason that "ignorance is bliss". As an individual, a person wants his superior and support team to be extremely good at people management which most often is lacked by himself.

Why is it not considered when a person is promoted to management or recruited? Anyone shares my opinion?

More detailed questions will follow...

QA and Brain

Have you observed that, generally the person, whom you lookup to, in a group has this habit. During any discussion, he/she puts a question and then himself answers it.

People get attracted not only to those answers but also the questions. Why? Because our brains react only when a question is posed and they become active. When a person puts a question, the brain starts thinking and the question is answered. What do you for the rest of the things? Simple! Put more questions.

Our brains have been partially(3/4) tuned to work only when a question is posed. What do they do when there is no question. Remain Idle.

And, so we have developed our Computers. They work only when there is a request(question).

Does this mean that our brains don't work proactively? NO. The potential of our brains has been tremondously under-estimated. You would be surprised to know that the best person whom you see around uses hardly 1-2% of his brains capabilities. Probably, Shakuntala Devi, uses 10% of her brains' capabilities.

How do we improve ourselves to use our brains' 10% of capabilities? Simple. Force yourself to become Active.
