Where can we see the managers? Managers are not only found in the corporate. Our Dad, Mom is also great managers. There are lots of things have to learn from them. Have we learnt any managerial skills from them? May be? Today, I'm going to write about an enthusiastic, bold, renowned manager of "RED DEVILS".
Anyone figured who is it? It is, Sir Alex Ferguson a Scottish man, the manager of the English Club the legend "Manchester United (Red Devils)". I'm a great fan of ManU from the age of 14. Do you people know why I like ManU? Because in my childhood days, ManU used to defeat brutally all the other teams which were facing ManU vis-a-vis. Later, I started loving football (only if ManU plays). I never missed a ManU match until my 10th standard. During 11th and 12th standard I stayed in hostel. So, I missed the cruel actions of ManU. Again crave for seeing ManU matches started when I entered my engineering. The pitiful situation in my college was, there were 2 groups, one was supporting ManU (nearly 6 persons including me) and the other group was against ManU (Against ManU group members were the supporters of other clubs like Chelsea, Liverpool, Arsenal and etc. They were around 40). Surely there will be a fight after the ManU match whether ManU won or lost. Those fights were like passing clouds.
Ok, now come to the topic. I usually call Sir Alex Ferguson as "FERGI" or "THE BOSS of ManU". I always used to say to my rivals (supporters of other football club), whoever playing for ManU, even ManU is full of Greenhorns ManU will win BOSS FERGI is there. He is a successful manager of ManU since 1986. No manager served in the same football club so far.
What does differ Fergi from other club manager? "Fergi won't buy great players, he will develop great players" eg.,Christiano Ronaldo, Rude Van Nistelrooy, Wayne Rooney, Becham and so on.
What I want to say here is "We future managers will be futile if our contribution will not add value to the organization". "We should develop new values to the organization which we belong".
The character which I like from Sir Alex is "Whatever may be the condition, he won't fail to support his team or team members". He will sacrifice anything for his players and his team. He will take the blame when the team lost the game. If ManU wins the game, he will say "My boys played well today, they deserve the victory".
We managers can also follow his footsteps if you think its worth. "A good manager will come into picture when his team fails and the team comes into picture when it wins".
Folks, numerous things have to learn outside corporate world.
There are lots of things have to learn from Sir Alex, aren't they?
PROUD TO BE THE SUPPORTER OF "RED DEVILS"
