I know the question is probably sarcastic. But being serious: Simply by being good at their jobs of helping the people they manage and having those people want them to be part of the team. And then on the flipside as well where higher ups trust them to help be a good translation layer that enables teams to meet organizational objectives.
- hinkley 4y agoIf you have to chose between two managers based on metrics, then you're already fucked one way or another. Either because you can't actually afford to lose either of them, or their both so awful that just asking people doesn't get you a good answer. I've said it before and I'll say it again: finding ways to characterize people as bad at their jobs is about keeping salaries down, whether by accident or on purpose. Because those are metrics your boss's skip level manager looks at. And they 'work' until they don't, by which point the manager can move up or out and get a reset on the numbers being used against them.
