Abstract
The authors conducted a survey of mid-level administrators to ascertain the importance of particular management skills and the administrators’ self-perceived need for further development of these skills. Although personnel management and leadership skills were rated the most important skills, the respondents expressed a need for further development only in the area of fiscal management, with conferences and workshops cited as the preferred professional development methods.
