To create a great organisation, it is important to have a great manager and also an able leader who can manage a team of people efficiently and effectively. Management skills are crucial in utilising available resources to encourage team members to work together to accomplish desired goals and objectives. There are certain efforts needed in management to plan, organize, delegate, lead and control an organisation to accomplish the common goal.

Everyone have different self-image and work mask that we bring to work. We have our own natural tendencies and different responses when comes to handling a situation. Therefore, there are various styles of management and leadership. Everyone plays a different role in the world, and BaZi Profiles can reveal whether they are natural born leaders.

To find out your Profile, you can utilise Joey Yap's BaZi Personality Profiling system at www.baziprofiling.com to plot your own BaZi chart and realize your management qualities. Take your chart as guide to help you fine-tune yourself.

There are four types of Profiles with the high potential to succeed in the management level:

Potential Profiles	Behavior in Workplace
The Leader (Rob Wealth)	Persuasive They are remarkably persuasive, convincing others to their standpoint or argument. They can influence others like a smooth operator who knows what and how to convey their opinion. Inspirational They are very motivating and encouraging. They are capable of rallying others for a cause, or simply around themselves. They are able to reach into people's heart, and will often inspire their team members to increase motivation. Proactive They won't sit down and wait to be handed an opportunity. They will create their own opportunities, and always be on an alert to the news of how their capabilities can be maximised. They often possess great amount of drive and initiative.
The Warrior (Seven Killings)	Brave They are like a warrior with the courage to take the challenge. They are committed to standing up for what they believe in and fighting for justice for others with no fear. Adventurous They love a challenge and in fact, they love the prospect of risks. They are energetic and are not cowed or intimidated by the prospect of high adventure! Energetic Do not underestimate the Warrior Profile - they will attack tasks with high energy as if they are consumed with a mission. They have a strong sense of stamina and are not afraid to go the extra mile. They are capable and hardworking, and will not shirk their duties.
The Pioneer (Indirect Wealth)	Passionate They are focused and extremely driven in whatever they do. They will strive to the extreme if something grabs their attention. Even if something doesn't grab their attention, they are sure to go out and find something that does! They are very fervent about doing something good and useful with their lives. Strong Literally, nothing can quite break the spirit of the Pioneer Profile. They are perfectly capable of landing on their feet with or without anyone's help. With an independent and resourceful spirit since young, they are solid enough to weather whatever that comes their way. Visionary They enjoy something new, and building something from the ground up. They tend to have a vision of what they want to fulfill. They are think big to get ahead in life, so they will go for the biggest fish, aim for the highest mountain. They definitely will have ideas and plans to target the top or the best.
The Diplomat (Direct Officer)	Self-aware They are often aware of themselves and practices the virtues of modesty and humbleness. They are very clear about their own flaws and strengths. Humble Their goal is not to glorify oneself and is rarely motivated by selfishness. If they do well or achieve success, they understand that they are able to reach it because of other people's efforts as well. They are appreciative of the team member's efforts in every accomplishment. Unpretentious They deeply dislike pretenses and insincerity. They generally have simple desires for a work environment. They enjoy and appreciate a sense of peace.

How about who does not have those four Profiles in their chart? Everyone has the potential to be a good manager. They can always improve from their weaknesses and maximize their strengths to meet the management skills. After all, each Profile has a particular function to play in society. Focus on the skills that you have and make sure you maximize it! We have already won half the battle when we do what we are naturally good at. And this will definitely make a difference when it comes to winning the rat race or the dog-eat-dog business world that we thrive in!
