There are 3 elements to being a good manager

Direction, Hosting, and Life

  1. Direction - Good managers communicate clearly and regularly about what is expected and include their people in setting those expectations.

  2. Hosting - Good managers set just enough structure, expectations, and checkins that their people feel supported toward their short- and long-term goals.

  3. Life - Good managers invest in their people holistically, while pragmatically, supporting them as people that will be growing through their whole lives.
