What do you consider the role of a manager that makes it change significantly based on where their team is sitting?
- deepGem 4y agoI didn't catch the question but I will attempt to answer based on what I understand. Role of a manager that will change significantly based on where the team is sitting - The ability to convey meaning and emotion over written comms and over video calls, to drive the team forward without being too mechanical about it.
- bonniemuffin 4y agoOne key role for a manager is being able to detect who's feeling unmotivated or trying to bullshit you or has something going on in their life that's affecting their work, so that you can dig in to understand more and address the issues proactively. When you casually see people in person every day throughout the day, it's easier to notice when someone's demeanor changes, vs. mostly talking on slack and having a couple of zoom meetings per week.
