A manager is someone who coordinates and
oversees the work of other people so that organizational goals can be
accomplished. A manager’s job is not about personal achievement—it’s
about helping others do their work. That may mean coordinating the work
of a departmental group, or it might mean supervising a single person. It could
involve coordinating the work activities of a team with people from different
departments or even people outside the organization, such as temporary employees
or individuals who work for the organization’s suppliers.
