This screen gives a breakdown of a manager's stats and preferences. It's split into four categories: Personal Details, Mental, Tactics and Contract.

Personal Details
A member of staff's personal details takes in highlights of their Personal information, also stating their reputation in the game. Your reputation as a manager is shaped by your success on the pitch and will take many years to develop before you rank alongside the best bosses in the world. As your reputation improves so will your chances of landing a job with a bigger club. Certainly a better reputation will also ingratiate you to high profile players, while jumping in at the deep end of managing top stars while you're an unknown could kill your career before it's really started.

Mental
These attributes start at 10 and are shaped by the decisions you make as you play Football Manager. Some of them are affected in more obvious ways - your loyalty, for instance, will reflect your willingness to stay at your current club, a fact that is in turn partly determined by whether or not you decide to apply for other jobs. Media Handling is pretty self-explanatory too, as it's an assessment of how well you manipulate comments and respond to news.
Factors such as Temperament and Professionalism may be affected by media comments for instance, but will also reflect the even-handedness of your approach to discipline.
Many of these factors are inter-linked and counter-balanced, so it's hard to be a fully ambitious manager while displaying total loyalty. You can use these stats, however, as a guide to your persona in the game. It's then up to you whether you want to alter your personality in Football Manager to become a Mourinho-style genius of media handling or an Alex Ferguson-esque paragon of loyalty.

Tactics
This section gives you a breakdown of the Tactics preferred by a manager. If it's your profile in the frame, this is again shaped by your decisions in the bootroom and will reflect the instructions you give your players on match days.

Contract
All managers need to be paid, and their salary is a reflection of how highly their board of directors rates them as well as their success on the pitch and negotiation skills. As a result, this section is a good yardstick of your own performance in the game. Unfortunately you won't be able to spend the money you receive as payment for your services, but you can at least see that your efforts are being recognised.
