Introduction

For a manager to excel in the field of the most widely used and broadly practiced tool, management skills are a most critical asset any manager is ought to adopt. It must be excerpted that in today's modern world, it is amongst the most important attempts that must be undertaken by any manager, who wishes to work and survive in the long-term while serving in an organization.

Management and leadership go hand-in-hand these days; as companies and competitors join hands and work upon the model of collaboration, practicing managerial skills is among the key measures and are directly proportional to a manager's acceleration or separation within the organization.
