| Apart from being a leader, an entrepreneur also needs to be an able Manager, regardless of whether or not he plays an active role in the organization that has been set up. Managerial strengths tend to manifest far more visibly whereas the qualities of a leader are subliminal and in a sense even private. Managerial competencies in some ways appear to have a greater use for an entrepreneur to make a favorable first impression with all the stakeholders of the enterprise. The leadership strengths that come to fore in sustained transactions tend to build on this very foundation.
So what are the qualities of a capable Manager an entrepreneur may inherently possess or develop in order to extend his sphere of influence? It is easy to conclude that to successfully manage resources in any context the one factor that plays a critical role is common sense. However what construes this common sense is not as easily decipherable. Is it Focus and Discipline? Is it Result Orientation and the skills of an "Arranger?" Is it good Team and Relationship Orientation? Or is it a judicious mix of all of them.
