Abstract: | "I have come to the conclusion that important to managerial success are the traits of intelligence, supervisory ability, initiative, self-assurance and perceived occupational level." Self-assurance and initiative seem "to be of lesser importance than intelligence, supervisory ability, and perceived occupational level… . Self-realization and autonomy universally are more important to managers than prestige, social satisfactions, and even security." The "substratum of managerial talent is individuality and the desire for self-realization through creative activity." (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved) |
