That's a manager talking.
The company dies anyway, so that argument is moot.
The solution lies somewhere else. For instance, actually taking the pressure off with resources - e.g. the manager can get their status reports by actually understanding the project by short one-on-one interviews and attending design meetings. Instead of asking everyone to come to a staff meeting, or send their status reports and jamming them into one aggregated email and forwarding that as their own work and pretending they did something.
- lifeisstillgood 4y agoAgreed. One powerful idea for software development is "integration and promotion" - integrating code from different commits / workers and putting them into one package and testing it and only then moving it forward. you can take this principle into everything - got a marketing launch? Set up in the room downstairs and run your timings, Basically "plans" that do not involve early surfacing and use of the product (and just hoping you are a good enough manager to tell everyone what to do) is doomed. we only do well things we do often
