Module 4a: Management Control

Identifying needed business skills - Taking an inventory of where your business management strengths and weaknesses are is a very useful planning exercise. Not being strong in certain areas of business management is only a problem if you don't recognize it. By recognizing it, you may choose to secure additional training or the services of someone who is proficient in the areas where you lack skills.

The following worksheet will help you take an inventory of your management strengths and weaknesses. In answering each question, consider tasks that you've performed in prior positions, volunteer work, community services, personal characteristics and other traits that define how you tend to manage situations and resources.

Instructions: Read each question carefully and respond as honestly and as creatively as possible. Your answers will help identify where your strengths are and where you may want to secure the services of others, pursue additional training, and/or gain direct experience. Think about your answers and talk them over with someone else - your partner, mentor or counselor. Using this as a basis for discussion can often uncover other issues affecting the business development process.

Please fill in questions proceeded by a double asterisk and marked in red
