If you're, as a manager, making that decision without ever talking to the staff member, you're not giving them the chance to step up. It's tough sometimes to say, we should go in together so you can sort of observe and see and hear. I think shadowing is a great recommendation, but i would never have other people in the meeting who'd be likewise that person here. This is an opportunity for them to start to understand what happens in these meetings,. So eventually they can go in my place, i feel like other people would support.

Analytics is hard (so they say... but we're not going to open THAT can of worms). Do you know what's harder? Managing analysts! I mean, they're always asking, “Why?” Sometimes, they even ask it five times! They can wind up, you know, analyzing whatever you're asking them to do! On this episode, special guest Moe Kiss (you may know her as a co-host of this podcast) joined Michael and Tim to dig into the ins and outs of the analyst/manager relationship.
