Decision making, Interpersonal and Informational qualities.

[Michael Scofield]

Could someone define these for me? My teacher said we have to know them but they're not in the textbook, cheers

These were the three definitions that came up on last year's exam, so you could go to the examiners report and get a really solid definition for all three.

I'll write a very brief definition out for you though;
Interpersonal - involve liaising and dealing with people
Informational - involve gathering and communicating information
Decision making - involve making choices in order to solve problems or take up opportunities

Hope this helps

Do the management skills fall under these three types of qualities?
For example: interpersonal- stress management, emotional intelligence, etc
Informational- communication, etc
If they do, which skills go under which 'categories'?

Thanks in advance!

My teacher has gone through this stuff:
I believe interpersonal and informational to be more like 'management qualities' than management skills.
Interpersonal: the ability to understand and relate to, as well as empathise with employees.
Informational: a thorough understanding of the business, allowing the manager to recognise problems and find solutions.

Decision-making is a management skill, and from the textbook:
Decision-making refers to the ability to identify the options available then taking a specific course of action.

Hope it helps.
