Maybe I'm taking "Bad management" to literally mean "Bad managers", when people mean "the process of management"? Is a team that cannot self manage not (for software teams) a dev problem?
- mrkurt 6y agoI definitely mean "the process of management". A team that can't self manage is just a bad team. You can have a lot of great people on a bad team, so I don't think it's exactly a dev problem. It's a "whoever puts teams together" problem. There are lots of people who benefit from a named manager. Expecting people to self manage who don't really want to is as bad as micro managing people. I know because I f'd this up at least 3 times building my last company. ;)
- alexbanks 6y agoAhhhhh - yes, totally agree with you.
