29、 Now listen, and fill in the missing information. pause M: Many people today ask how they can become a great manager. My lecture today will discuss some essential qualities of a great and effective manager. Generally, a good and effective manager should be very good at the following essential tasks.
30、 First, great managers accept blame. When someone from head office visits and expresses displeasure, the great manager immediately accepts full responsibility. In everyday working life, the best managers are constantly aware that they selected their people and should have developed them. Errors made
31、 by team members are in very real sense their responsibility. Second, great managers give praise. Praise is probably the most under-used management tool. Great managers are forever trying to catch their people doing something right and congratulating them on it. And when praise comes from outside, t
32、hey are swift not merely to make the fact known, but to make clear who has earned it. Managers who regularly give praise are in a much stronger position to criticize or reprimand poor performance. Moreover, great managers put themselves about. Most managers now accept the need to find out not merely
33、 what their team thinks, but what the rest of the world, including their customers need. So MBWA, i. e. management by walking about, is an excellent thing. Another important point is that great managers exploit strengths, not weaknesses in themselves and in their people. They see strengths in themse
34、lves as well as in other people, as things to be built on, and weaknesses as something to be accommodated, and if possible, eliminated. The last but not the least, great managers make themselves redundant. What great managers do is to learn new skills and acquire useful information from the outside
35、world, and then immediately pass them on, to ensure that if they were to be run down by a bus, the team would still have the benefit of the new information. So great managers are always on the lookout for higher-level activities to occupy their time, while constantly passing on tasks that they have
36、already mastered. pause Now listen to the recording again. pause That is the end of Part Three.

You now have forty-five seconds to read through the questions. pause W: Now listen, and mark A , B, orC. Right, lets move on to the targets for 1998 and o
41、ur medium-term plans. For the AMAT, we expect to reach sales of 250,000 this is roughly the same figure as last year and it may be a little pessimistic, as we are going to do a large-scale promotion campaign during the year so perhaps we will achieve something like 300,000. Still I prefer to keep th
42、e forecast at 250,000. Now, we come to the BMAT. Here sales should reach 450,000. This could be a little optimistic as we are not going to push this product in 1998. In any case, the total will probably balance out with the more conservative forecast for the AMAT. The CMAT, our most recent product,
43、will continue to do well, Sales may go as high as 600,000. However, I have set the target slightly lower at 550,000. OK, lets turn to our medium-term plans. At the beginning of 1998 we are going to launch our new product the DMAT and we are sure sales will take off very quickly. We estimate first ye
44、ar sales at 200,000. The DMAT should initially complement the AMAT and eventually replace it in the nineties. Finally, R&D are working hard on a medium range produce they hope to have it ready by 1999 so we could launch it in 2000. pause Now listen to the recording again. pause That is the end of Pa
