No I am not agree with it. In class room you only learn skills or tactics theoretically. But with experience you can learn how to implement tactics those learnt in class room. So without experience you will not able to use that skills effectively. Without practical knowledge theoretical seems handicap.

Friends I feel that the classrooms provide a base upon which a career can be built. We need classrooms and simultaneously we also need experience. Classrooms teach us basic skills and experience teaches us how to utilize those skills in the real world setting.

It is true that many successful people like Dhirubhai Ambani and LN Mittal did not receive formal education and still made it big but it is also true that the same people send their sons and daughters to best classrooms available.

Besides if you simply look at the percentage of people that become successful without receiving formal education, you will find it to be very low. That why I feel both are important in their respective capacities.

Hi everyone, I believe that classroom knowledge is as much important as experience because skill and technique can be implemented to the real work can be taught in classroom only. No one can directly start working until and unless his or her base is made strong so we cannot ignore class room education. But yes, experience is also important as the same because it will teach to tackle the real situation what is happening in the real world.

I think managerial skills taught in classroom for some purpose. Because these are define by the expertise. The managerial skills we learnt in class room can help in our practical life. And it is true that " Managerial skills learnt in the classroom can never match those learnt from experience". Because experience comes from practical things which always taught a lesson to us. And lesson is more important than theoretical thoughts.

Hi everyone, I am here to point out my view on "managerial skills learnt in the classroom can never match those learnt from experience".

I would like to say for managerial skills you need experience and this experience will get strong when your classroom training is to be strong. But we can relate both on some level, because on my experience I can say worker has more experience or knowledge about a machine than an engineer as he has experience on that particular work and engineer can only relate it through his theoretical knowledge.

Now comes to managerial skills, I must it only and only develop when you apply classroom training again and again on your work then only you will get experience and develop managerial skills.

Hi friends, I know that managerial skills learnt from the classroom can never ever match the skills we learnt from experience. And this is one of the reason, even in schools and colleges we have practicals which will be a lot easier. And sometimes these practicals helps us to understand those theories.

As my opinion, if you have theoretical knowledge then you can able to explain what you are doing but if you have experience in that particular subject then you can perform better and do that work efficiently.

For ex: If you are learning swimming and you have attended so many swimming classes but in practical you will be failed to swim but after practicing and knowing your difficulties you can able to do better. So for being successful both are important.

Yes, I agree with the statement because experience will give you the direction in which if you apply your managerial skills, you will get the maximum output. And experience comes after starting a work. So, one started his work using his managerial skills taking some assumptions but you do not get the expected result but you came to know that certain assumptions which you consider are the reason of unexpected results. By experience, you also came to know about the situations where if your managerial skills went wrong, how to overcome those situations. So, we should start working taking help from experienced guys and develop our own experience.

Hi, friends, I am very happy to convey my thought with you.

In my point of view, the managerial skills half of the part only learnt in the classroom. Once we try to apply in any field. In the first time, they got failed and that time experience will teach you.

Friends, according to me, whatever you study in a classroom is going to be made practical in the real world. Learning will teach you how to behave in a professional world, and how the best manager could be,

If you don't have proper managerial skills then it becomes difficult to work.

So, I think that learning and then experiencing it is very important because if you have knowledge but cannot implement it then it is of no use.
