"Are you a good or bad manager?"
summary
Argues that managers must set weekly/fortnight/monthly one-to-ones tailored to each report, ask “what do you need from me” and act on the answers, and give feedback at least every three months instead of saving negatives for yearly reviews. Recommends creating a transparent culture where people can request role changes, mentoring and hand‑holding when needed, and being an awesome admin who approves holidays and equipment quickly. Urges investing in leadership training and measurable follow‑ups.
