Paper For Above instruction

Recently, I read an article titled "The Changing Role of Managers in the 21st Century" (Smith, 2024), which discusses how managers today are evolving from traditional supervision roles to more strategic and motivational leaders. The article highlights the increasing importance of emotional intelligence, technological adaptability, and cultural competence in management practices. It emphasizes that modern managers need to be agile, empathetic, and capable of managing diverse teams across different regions, especially in a rapidly globalizing economy. This shift reflects broader trends in business where agility and soft skills are becoming equally as important as technical expertise.

This article relates directly to our class discussions on management and leadership. It resonates with my personal experience working in a multicultural team, where understanding cultural differences and effectively communicating across borders were crucial for success. The emphasis on emotional intelligence aligns with what we learned about leadership qualities—and it underscores the necessity for managers to be not only task-focused but also people-oriented, especially when navigating the complexities of managing in a global environment. These insights reinforce the importance of developing soft skills to adapt to contemporary managerial challenges.
