1. You are a bright, hard-working, entry-level manager who fully intends to rise up through the ranks. Your performance evaluation gives you high marks for your technical skills, but low marks when it comes to people skills. Do you think people skills can be learned, or do you need to rethink your career path? If people skills can be learned, how would you go about doing it? Provide a multiple paragraph response

2. How would you feel about working in a bossless organization? What might be your role as a manager in such an environment? Do you think this is a trend that will continue to grow or fade away? Why? Provide a multiple paragraph response.

3. Describe technical, human, and conceptual skills and their relevance for managers. While these skills are important to all levels of management, explain which level of management (top, middle, first line) they are most important to. Support your answer with your rationale for choosing the level of management you selected.
