ABSTRACT
In this paper, we consider what is essential for managerial activity from the psychological perspective, and how it can be used for achieving organizational goals. We present some important factors of a psychological nature that can be applied to the practice of management. Namely, motivation, subordinates' personality features, individual style of performance, the effect of the group environment on individual performance, and the phenomenon of compatibility. The concept of manager and managers is briefly discussed. Social interaction between the manager and subordinates is emphasized, specifically the way managers relate to subordinates, and how this factor affects the group moral and psychological atmosphere in the workplace. The necessity of clear and systematic communication is considered as well. All of that will be presented in utilizing the systemic approach from the activity theory perspective.
