Managerial skills according to Katz

Social psychologist Robert L. Katz in 1974, in his article,” Skills of an Effective Administrator“ in Harvard Business thought about the relationship of managerial skills (competencies) and hierarchical management levels.

  • Conceptual skills - competencies with a substantial importance, particularly for top management
