How New Managers Fail Individual Contributors - Camille Fournier

Fournier has coached a lot of managers, and she shares some common failure modes of new managers:

  1. Doing all the technical design work yourself
  2. Doing all the project management yourself - your team members will need to learn those skills as they advance
  3. Neglecting to give feedback
  4. Hoarding information - intentionally or unintentionally
  5. Focussing on the their own output and not that of the team
