(The English version follows)

一个有问题的团队可能同时有不少问题。作为管理者如何带领这一团队走出泥潭就是一门学问。今天的分享是由 Camille Fournier 带来的,她也是 Manager‘s Path 这本书的作者,我们曾经在第36期邮件里介绍过。

Daily Productive Sharing 036 - 20201010

The flywheel is heavy and painful to start, and starts off slow, but as it gathers momentum over time it goes faster and faster. Turning around a team feels like getting this flywheel spinning.

These managers (the best managers) may tackle confusing on-call schedules, or onerous project management expectations. The best will look across the projects and quickly re-prioritize work to gain focus for the team.

When you find yourself in a rut, remember that you don’t have to solve the root cause of everything wrong with the team as a first act. Start with the little problems.

Once you’ve gotten the team to be productive, they will still need you to set direction, and to resolve interpersonal and inter-team conflicts.

全文可以在这里读到:The Management Flywheel

类似的观点在其他书中也存在,比如 Nudge 就专门介绍了如何四两拔千斤。
