I am almost convinced most middle management are like small babies. That's not meant derogatively: there's a problem, they have been notified, yet they cannot do anything about it. They need someone else to fix it. So, they cry loud and clear that there is a need to fix this.
It's difficult to understand sometimes, but they are pressured from above, and they don't have the means to fix it by themselves.
- caseyy 2y agoGood management is a tool they have to fix the problem. But yes, sometimes they have mismanaged things so much that they can only kick up a fuss or pester people. It causes a lot of stress and is not very effective from my exp. On a more positive note, other managers will have a rapport with their teams where if the team only learns of a problem, it will be addressed. They only need to act as liaisons — stick something on a kanban board somewhere, and it will get resolved. No loud crying necessary, just business as usual.
