NOTE

You can’t just do your team’s work as a PM

As a product manager, it's crucial to understand that trying to do your team's work to be helpful can backfire. Changing a UX design or interfering with specialized tasks can lead to frustration and inefficiency. It's essential for product managers, CEOs, and founders to delegate work as the team grows, even if it feels like reduced productivity in the short term. Hiring the right people and granting them autonomy fosters effectiveness in the long term. Managing people effectively is highly impactful and more leveraged than personally excelling in a specific skill.
