SERRANO, German. Management skills and virtues: A road to excellence. estud.gerenc. [online]. 2017, vol.33, n.143, pp.208-216. ISSN 0123-5923.  https://doi.org/10.1016/j.estger.2017.03.004.

In this reflection the directive ability and competency are addressed from an Aristotelian perspective, which identifies three areas of knowledge: theory, practice, and technique, essential to the comprehension and proficiency to complete a specific tasks. This provides guidelines to justify lighting a management competence to a virtue category, by supporting the manager in the orientation of people's work towards the achievement of common goals. This reflection is based on the comparison of two different proposals with different origin, which share a common intention: one based on Positive Psychology the other on Philosophical Anthropology.

Keywords : Management style; Organizations; Management skills; Virtues; Professional development.
