Business Development Managers, HR Manager, Sales Manager, etc. Are all considered today to be highly over-rated positions. Do you agree?

I am not in favor of sweeping statements-i.e. generalizing about things. It all depends on the employer who rates things. Some may over-rate these positions, while others may under-rate them. What is correct, however, is to rate them properly. Each position is necessary, and the sum of these positions should be synergestic. Needless to say, what is more important than the position itself is the position holder. It is the position holder who adds value but not the position. 

I'M totally agree with you, in which such positions will have direct impact of the balance sheet of the enterprice.

I dont think there is any truth in it Mayez because everyone has a crucial role in organization otherwise such positions will not be made first of all. I never heard Business Development, Sales Managers and HR Managers are overated positions. 

any company runs of Business brought in through various means thats is directly revenue as every company is depended on cash flows, profits which helps it grow further. Sales Manager is some one who is responsible to sell products and services and again its backbone of the company Sales as wihout selling no company can survive with money in bank it will end soon. 

Human Resource is also a very key department in company with manpower with Human Resource again no company can grow as its humans who brings value to company large coroporates have10,000 employees working I know slowly machines are taking over but still Human involvement cant be ignored.

So I dont agree at all on above.

I completely agree. The point is that in such an informational age the work load or the dependency on the "managers" has reduced a lot. In earlier times you had to totally depend on the manager's word on what to do and how to do but in today's generation even inexperienced juniors are more educated than "managers" so they hardly need the manager's advice all the time.

Experience.

Yes, this is one thing that is considered when it comes to 'manager' title. But the truth is experience is highly over-rated. I will tell you why.

Take an example of two individuals. One individual has solid memory capacity and passion to learn and let's call him Mr.A . Another individual has average learning capacity and no passion at all and let's call this guy Mr. B.

Now on the CV you have Mr. A who has2 years experience and Mr. B who has10 years experience.

In this case, A is100 PERCENT BETTER THAN B. :-)

What one person learns in1 year is not the same for another person.

In my personal experience when I first joined a company as a Sales Exec, I found out that I learned more about the product in one month that my colleagues who were in the company since9 months. Haha. Imagine. It's because they were sheep people. They were the9-5 mentality people. I was there to make shit happen so I learned better in one month itself.

it is quite important to recover speedily after a disaster because it makes you operationally balance and gives continuous customers loyalty. A plan to ensure that customers will not be affected from both internal and external disaster is critical to a business. A plan ahead may be the saving grace on an organisation's share values.

agreed wih hasan

One cannot generalize it in such a manner. There are people who have reached this position through the knowledge gained from years of experience and are prepared to share. And THESE people help in building an organization.
