1–on-1 with your manager will be more effective after reading this post

Recently, I read Chapter 1 of the book “<a href="https://www.oreilly.com/library/view/the-managers-path/9781491973882/" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">The Manager’s Path</a>” which describes the basics of being managed and what to expect from a manager.

They teach you important skills, provide valuable feedback, help you navigate difficult situations, and figure out what you need to learn. Most importantly, they help you understand what is important to focus on and enable you to maintain that focus. <a href="https://medium.com/helpshift-engineering/1-on-1-with-your-manager-will-be-more-effective-after-reading-this-post-252f5437bb58">Learn More</a>
