#AAJA2020 Best thing I learned from good managers: Practicing empathy - learning what their team's goals are & also what makes them miserable. Good managers want their team to succeed, not just themselves. They're not the loudest voice in the room. - @sclary

#AAJA2020 Bad managers hoard talent. An honest, good manager wants a person on their team to succeed. I've learned so much from bad managers. - @marcelolprince

#AAJA20 The best managers I've had have been coaches. They give you the tools and the skills you need to get the job done. You let folks flourish - you give them the freedom to be who they are, rather than shape them yourself. - @juliachanb

#AAJA2020 Great point from @marcelolprince
The role that scares you the most is the one where you are probably going to learn the most.
