Ok, managerial skills include organising, leading, communicating, starting up and so on. Some people I know who do this well, from my experience
Anshita Abhishek Shetty, whose birthday it is today, organised two parties with good attendance, for me when I asked her to. It's not an easy task, though she made it look easy.
T.K. Chatterjee, a colleague at IMT Nagpur, led the placement team successfully when I was Director. Before him, Harsh Halve was also successful at it. Both motivated a team of people too.
Narayani Ramachandran, a colleague at NMIMS Bangalore, had a way with students, pushing them to do things beyond their usual capabilities.
Pritam Singh, my boss at IIM Lucknow long ago, had a way of recruiting faculty, convincing companies to do training programs, and so on.
Startups- Shatakshi Tripathi started Confused Genius- a digital marketing company, and sold it too, successfully navigating the COVID years through remote working employees. Natasha Kothari, a friend I met recently, does this at Studio Ungap, which she started roughly 5 years ago, as a Digital Marketing outfit in Mumbai. Divya Singh also did this with a firm called Cyclitics, still running successfully at Gurgaon. And a couple of them, like Swati Sinha and Aditi Atre, sell stuff like handloom sarees, art etc. Aditi Gupta does the same abroad, through Abhivyakti.
