Answer to Question 1

First-line managers and, to a lesser extent, middle managers, need technical skills relevant to the activities that they manage. Although managers typically do not perform the technical tasks themselves, they must be able to train subordinates, answer questions, and otherwise provide guidance and direction for the technical tasks of the organization.

A
