Introduction An analysis of what a manager does and how a manager should act is presented in this report. It is the leaders' ability to manage that largely determines the success or failure of their people. In this report, various important aspects of management will be discussed including the central theme of 'The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People,' management roles, employer-employee relationships, arguments, etc. The purpose of this report is to examine various aspects of management in detail. The Name of the Book and the Central Theme 'The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People' is the title of the book. Authored by Stephen Covey, this book is a personal development guide. Success is based on character, which is the central theme of this book. An explanation of the seven habits of highly effective people can be found in this book. Active listening, synergizing, and sharpening the saw are all habits of being proactive, thinking win-win, being proactive with the end in mind, and planning with an end in mind (Covey, 1991). A person can achieve success in both their professional and personal lives by following these habits. Communication, collaboration, and self-development are the main topics of this book. It is possible to transform oneself from a dependent to an interdependent individual by following these habits. Main Arguments of the Book An individual's success is largely determined by their characteristics, according to the author. In this regard, the author suggests how to succeed in life by being and acting accordingly. Several types of habits have been described and their effectiveness explained by the author. It is important to know what is important to one at any given time, according to the author (Trenberth & Hassan, 2013). A person can improve their objectivity, filtering, and intelligence by adopting these two habits. The Relationship between Managers and Employee Mutual trust, reassurance, and friendliness should characterize the relationship between an employer and employee. The author of this book recommends listening first and seeking to be understood, followed by understanding. It is therefore important for managers to listen carefully to the employees and to find out what they like and dislike. Subordinates do not like talking to their managers. The employee-employer relationship becomes misunderstanding due to this.

How is the Book portrayed? Throughout the book, self-development has been emphasized. There are several habits that can help a reader to succeed in life, which will be beneficial to them as they read the book. The book depicts seven good habits. Aside from explaining how these habits will help people succeed in life, the author also discusses how they will contribute to it. Leaders should practice these habits in order to be successful. The Chosen Topic and Its Importance A number of important qualities of highly effective people are explored by the author of this book. Good habits are said to be the foundation of success by the author. Thus, the author recommends a number of habits. By implementing these habits, one can upgrade from being dependent to being interdependent (Lane et al, 2009). A career can also lead to mastery. The importance of this topic can be attributed to these reasons. Aspects of Management Discussed in the Book There is a description of the scientific aspects of management in this book. Integrity, humility, courage, and modesty are some of the qualities considered necessary for a good leader by this book. These habits are necessary for acquiring these skills. It has not been discussed whether comedy or satire should be used. It was rather a combination of real-life examples and scientific arguments that the author used. Practical knowledge is abound in this book. What Makes a Good Manager? Several qualities should be present in a manager, according to this book. It is important for him to be proactive from the start. A second aspect is that he should have a clear vision and objective (Haylock, 2016). The third thing he needs to do is figure out what is important to him. Furthermore, he should believe in win-win scenarios. The fifth point is that he should be good listener who cares about the opinions and views of others. Last but not least, he should improve his skills. Organizational & Managerial Descriptions One needs to have several personal qualities to be a successful leader. His leadership skills should be excellent. Having a good understanding of his subordinates is the key to being a good leader. The company communicates regularly with its employees. He should possess a great deal of knowledge. A good listener should also be a part of his skill set. A subordinate's opinion and viewpoint will be respected by him.

The type of manager I hope to become The management style I want to use is democratic. This is because everybody has a chance to participate in decision-making through this leadership style. In this way, complex decisions are easier to make. Furthermore, leadership that involves everyone's viewpoints and opinions can boost creativity as a result of this style (Namiq, 2018). Interpersonal skills and leadership skills are among my strengths, whereas procrastination and a lack of time management skills are among my weaknesses. Management Implications of the Book Management is a very important subject in this book. This is because this book teaches a person how to follow the habits and skills of highly successful people. Organizing, leadership, planning, listening, taking others' opinions into account, and many other qualities are necessary for a good manager. As a result, this book provides useful guidelines and examples from real-life situations. Parts of the book that are most important There are seven habits in this book that are the most important. There are habits that can dramatically change a person's life. As a brief summary, these habits include being proactive, planning and organizing well, figuring out what's most important, thinking win-win, listening first, accepting differences, and knowing your strengths. Conclusion As part of this research report, we will explore various important aspects of international management and how to manage international contexts. Managing a business organization is one of the most important responsibilities of a manager. The subject of management has been discussed in this report in a number of important ways. The first of these is a description of a book titled 'The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People. Next, the book's learnings were portrayed in management. In my opinion, this report will be very helpful in gathering management knowledge.
