In today’s volatile economic environment and business world, the art of managing has taken on a new meaning. Remote work, co-sourcing, and alternating working arrangements have made the task of managing more complex. Management has never been easy. Even with hundreds of available resources, being in a management role can feel like stepping off a cliff with no lifeline when you are unprepared.
Now, more than ever, managers are responsible for the well-being, production, and success of a team of people. This can be daunting if anything goes wrong or when change abruptly hits. What sets the great boss apart from the average boss? What do great managers actually do?
