A manager's job is to help the people they manage be really good at their job, that's it. What I'm learning as a relatively new manager, I've been in this job for nine to ten months, is that people want to be managed differently, not everyone wants to be managed the same. Not everyone needs the same support to be really good at their job. So if you're new in a management role, what I recommend is just sitting down with each one of the people that you manage and asking them, "How can I help you be successful in your job?" And you'll get different answers. Some people want a lot of autonomy and basically, don't come to me, I'll come to you if I need anything. Other people crave more direction, they want more direction, they want more touch points, but definitely don't come into it just assuming that everybody likes to be managed the way that you like to be managed.
