The Management Resource Center focuses on five content areas: accountability, communication, collaboration, engagement, and listening and assessing. Accountability for purposes of the ATD Resource Center is defined as "performance management and the delegation of responsibility to direct reports." Listening and assessing is defined as "the information-gathering, critical thinking, and processing skills of a manager during interactions with direct reports. Listening and assessing also encompasses emotional intelligence, which entails recognizing one's own and others' emotions and using emotional information to guide one's behavior and assessments."
