Managerial skill taught class room for some purpose. Because these are defined my expertise, managerial skill we learnt in class room can help in our particle life. But experience is also important as the same because it will be tech you to tackle the different kind of situation happening in our world. Managerial skill you need experience and this experience will get you strong when you are class room training is to strong and managerial skill in college or school we have practical. Managerial skill lesion most important than theoretical thought.

Indeed, yes skills never match when they are taught in classrooms subject which is taught to analyze the outer world, but in the real world its everything different as we listen though skills we develop is extremely different and they gonna different from the others. Well, we all study bookish knowledge only to know how managers deal their skills in the corporate sector.

I would like to share my views on this too.
It's true that the Managerial skills learnt in the classroom can never match those learnt from experience. For some people, what we learn in schools, colleges are never made use of them in real-life experiences.
The managerial skills taught in the classroom are too theoretical for any real-life scenarios.
They are not taught how to handle pressure, stress etc.
There are many scenarios that obviously cannot be covered in a few months of curriculum.
In a practical experience, we meet different people, & learnt different things.
Managerial skills in theory are very "generic'. This is not the case in the case of real-life experiences.
In real life, depending on the work environment and people, one needs to change the way work can be managed.
Against.
It will be unfair to pass judgment that Managerial skills learnt in the classroom can never match those learnt from experience.
It is a known fact that most of the business tycoons have studied from the top B schools.
What is learnt in the classroom may not completely match with real-life scenarios, however, the basics of any manager are patience, ability to motivate and manage a team.
Such basics are always experienced in real life, although in different forms.
What really matters is, how well a manager can handle his company. If the company employees are happy, it does not matter what he learnt in the classroom is being made us off or not. A key to any good manager is to motivate the Employee and consider their personal issues.

Hello friends, for me, the managerial skills that we learn in the classroom is the theoretical part. When someone asks you about skills then here you can explain properly but if you have the practical knowledge then you can perform in a better way. If you have the experience then you can handle difficult to difficult situations.
That doesn't mean the managerial skills that we learn from classes have no value. All the top tycoons have MBA degrees from reputed universities. From these studies, we know how to behave professionally, how to manage groups and how to solve the personal issues of employees.
The thing that matters for a manager that how to manage the team. If the employees of the company are happy with the manager's work, that doesn't matter whether the manager has the knowledge of managerial skills or not.
Thank you.

The outer world is full of challenges at different levels and of different types.
Managerial skills learned in classes conducted can give you a sort of support but practicality is something different i.e the situation act as a conflict for manager.
In the present scenario, it is the mentality of a manager how wisely he takes steps to tackle the challenges and how he satisfies everyone. A manager is totally known: When according to stimulus how he implies his skills.

I agree with the topic that managerial skills learned in the classroom can never match those from experience but it doesn't mean that skills taught in the classroom are less important.
Classroom learning provides theoretical knowledge about the foundation of management, but experience offers to apply those skills in real-world situations. And that experience allows managers to deal with different complexity and challenges that can not be taught in the classroom system.
By experience, managers learn from mistakes they had made, and they develop decision-making skills from the tough decisions they took, they learn interpersonal skills etc.

Personally, I feel that there should be no comparison between managerial skills learned in the classroom and those learned via experience. Because both fill in the gaps and enrich one's personality.
The skills we learn in class are put to use in real-world circumstances, and vice versa. Instead of comparing, we must recognise that both methods are naturally correlated.

Hey forum members,
I wanted to share my thoughts on the given debate topic: "Managerial skills learnt in the classroom can never match those learnt from experience".
Having spent several years working in various roles across different industries, I've come to appreciate the immense value of real-world experience in honing one's managerial abilities.
Classroom learning definitely provides a solid foundation and theoretical knowledge, which is crucial. It gives us the frameworks, theories, and best practices to understand the fundamentals of management. However, there's an undeniable gap between theory and practice. Real-life situations present us with unique challenges that textbooks simply can't predict.
Through hands-on experience, we encounter the complexities of interpersonal dynamics, adapting to rapidly changing situations, and making tough decisions under pressure. These real-world scenarios provide us with a deeper understanding of the intricacies of management that no lecture or textbook can fully capture.
Moreover, experience helps us develop essential soft skills such as effective communication, empathy, and problem-solving. We learn how to navigate conflicts, motivate teams, and foster a positive work environment. These skills are often developed through trial and error, which is a vital part of the learning process.
While classroom learning equips us with a theoretical framework, it's the practical application that transforms that knowledge into true expertise. So, it's not a matter of classroom learning versus experiential learning; rather, it's the combination of both that shapes us into well-rounded and effective managers.
In conclusion, while classroom learning sets the stage, the true magic happens when we put theory into action through real-world experience. The challenges we face, the decisions we make, and the lessons we learn along the way are the building blocks of exceptional managerial skills. So, let's embrace the classroom as a starting point and seize every opportunity to learn and grow through real-life experiences.
Thanks everyone.

As both are at their place in this real world. Where both theoretical and real-life experiences are needed. But the managerial life that we learn in the real world is too good in comparison to classroom knowledge.
As the book provides us the theories the real world provides us with experience on so both have their important role in student life.

Firstly, I want to say this is a very good topic of discussion.
Managerial skills learned in the classroom can never match those learned from experience.
Both have different scenarios in their own way. If we talk about the classroom this gives us the theoretical knowledge that provides us a framework for any context. This is also an essential part. Because we have been doing this from our schools, attending classes. In college also we are attending lectures. So from this attending things what actually we are doing. We are getting knowledge about a particular thing.
But real-world experience comes through the experience. It teaches us what actually works in the corporate world, and how to make good or proper decisions under pressure. We face a lot of challenges over there and from this, we get to know, how to get over those challenges and find many ways to do that task. So life experience is totally different from the classroom, how we actually work at our actual work site, how we behave with others, and how we handle all the situations in the corporate world.
