Lot of my experience about manager (should be not to do):

  • Don't know what to do.
  • Get task from higher position and only pass to subordinate.
  • Asking result without need to know the process.
  • Never giving appreciation.

Thank you :) And what should they do, in your opinion? (Except for what you just listed, but inverted.)

Hmm. Interesting..
I imagine a leader that can encourage people. Especially in term of this era of technology (lot of new framework, mature design pattern, etc), they should learn at least the pro and cons and try to implement it to make better product.

Another is try to make people in the team in the same level of knowledge, having standardization on how to code. Make people in the team happy but also in the same time challenging to make the team grow.
