what traits does a good manager have? (lemmy.ml)

I'll go first:

doesn't treat his employees differently according to personal bias.

Wants his employees to become better and to earn more money.

Respects his employees' needs for solitude (yes, I'm an introvert and want to disconnect during my pause) and knows what boundaries are.

Doesn't leave you in the lurch. One of the reason why I quit my last job is that my manager, who loved to claim we're a team would always go to smoke with his friends, while I'd be taking care of business, something he never acknowledge. His pauses lasted always more than 30 minutes and I was supposed to always work more than him. Nope.

Is not a drama queen and has a life outside of the workplace.

Doesn't try manipulating me each time I call in sick.

Am I asking for much?

Knows how to delegate and track progress with context not just some KPI that looks good.
