Is the ability to communicate more important to the successful performance ofa supervisior jobe than to that of a company president jobe?

The ability to communicate inter-personally is of greater value the higher up the organization chart you rise. Someone at the top, say the CEO, would need a better interpersonal skill with people than would a supervisor, middle manager. The strength of business owners' relational skills are crucial to the success of everyone in the organization producing products and services effectively and minimizing the conflict that is ever present in the organization. Therefore, the higher you go up the corporate ladder, the more important it is to be an effective communicator and negotiator.
