Managing is like any skill, if you want to develop it you have to work at it. For it to come naturally, is luck. That is, some collection of personal / personality traits, in the right place, at the right time. The problem is, few (are allowed / encouraged) to develop their manager-ness. That aside, managers are a function of leadership. Got a bad manager? That means some leader is not doing their job. Yes, there are few great managers, just as their are few great leaders. My theory is, we could have more great leaders (or at least on average better), but we collectively use that word / title (i.e., leader) so loosely that in too many cases people get the luxury of wearing the crown without out actually doing the work. If it doesn't walk like a duck...and it doesn't talk like a duck...yet it's still a duck?? That is creating a false sense of accomplishment.
