• Managing is setting a mission and strategy. Provide guidance, and coaching. Everyone else does the rest on their own.
• Your team is smarter than you, don't try to do it on your own.
• Team needs the space and trust to make mistakes, sometimes those turn into unexpected wins.
• Younger managers are still centralizing decision making. Will loosen up over time.
• Company DNA is incredibly hard to change. Early hires are core part of company, and were likely hired for their similarities.
• In a high growth company, your playbooks will likely be irrelevant in a matter of months. Don't count on autopilot reusage.
