Managers in the deliberation theory are members of the group that are responsible for '''[[decision making]] ''' and making the motivating group move in members with accordance of the decided direction. In order to achieve their goals they have to be good at decision making and in their ability to motivate and supervise other members to advance along the lines of decisions made by the managers.
I suspect that Managers in big organizations will be more of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_A_and_Type_B_personality_theory A type] (also called [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alpha_%28ethology%29 alpha dominance] or '''doers'''). The Type A managers will be goal orinted and there fore will stress the system.They will consult less with their workers.
 
==Difficulties in Management==
 
Difficulties in management will arise when the managers are not well adjusted making decisions or motivating their workers, and other managers in the organization. When a manager takes decisions which are perceived by other members as bad decisions, his legitimacy will decline. When she is unable to motivate workers and managers, her status might be challenged. In order to compensate on inability to make appropriate decisions and motivating other members, often managers tend to use force. They might talk in a threatening voice, and may imply that they may fire him. They will try to gain power and make others comply to their will, because they hold resources or power that is important to others. For instance a manager that may have decision power on how will go to a vacation or not, will use this power to achieve the compliance of other members who need or want to go to a vacation.
 
Managers, who have the lack of ability to motivate others, may be very stressed and may force their subordinates to comply, with threats.
