Peculiarities of model of personal qualities of an effective manager

The modern life of Russia is characterized by the essential changes caused by the creation of democratic foundations and the transition to market economy. But the above-mentioned changes having evident advantages, in practice collided with some factors impeding them. The main reasons for the above-mentioned problems to a great extent were lack of experience and of the enterprise management in the market economy conditions. It is well-known that in the pre-reform period a particular model of an effective manager appeared that was of the administrative-bureaucratic type. The modern situation requires another type of management close to the management of economically developed western countries. In such conditions the accent of the managerial activity must be made on the universal manifestation of the human potential in work.

One of the most important stage on the way of this problem solving is the development of the models of the personal qualities of an effective manager (MPQEM), containing the psychological characteristic of the subject of management in the light of the new organizational culture at the enterprises and the following eduction and the object-oriented elimination on the basis of the reasons for the low efficiency of a manager in modern conditions.

The empiric research performed at four big enterprise of the engineering industry had the purpose of studying effective managers (by the evaluation of the administration). The following hypotheses made the basis of the research: 1. At the modern stage of the development of Russian business the most important individual-psychological characteristics forming MPQEM are: 1) leadership, 2) the system of social self-identification, 3) the peculiarities of managerial solutions, 4) the characteristics of the capacity for work;  2. The efficiency of a manager in the sphere of controlling human resources depends on his individual-psychological peculiarities providing his success in a concrete paradigm of management, the main characteristic of which is the organizational culture.

As the result of the empiric research of the indicated plants the following peculiarities of IPQEM components were identified corresponding to each culture of organization.

Thus proceeding from the acquired results it is possible to draw conclusions. The organizational peculiarities of an enterprise in the form of the accepted organizational culture()managerial paradigms, organizational peculiarities of an enterprise, the absence of significant difference in the evaluation by the colleagues exercise influence on the forming of the request from the managerial system to the psychological image of a manager. The detected peculiarities show that the “market” managerial paradigm which is formed at the modern stage of development of the economy of Russia is not only economically justified but it has a significant psychological and humanitarian meaning- an all-side realization of human potential in work. The developed MPQEM must be used to solve the problems of the task-oriented elimination of the managerial behavior with low efficiency using them at least in both directions: to select managers with the required psychological characteristics; the change of the behavior models of the working managers who had individual-psychological aptitude for work in the new managerial model but did not realize it because of organizational barriers.
