Meaning of productivity to a manager
On [#stanier-effective-manager], 2nd chapter:
A manager should spend time in activities that should be classifiable as:
- Information gathering
- Decision making
- Nudging (meaning participating in things that lead to decision making from others)
- Being a role model
As a personal note, I'd like to add that it is also important to ensure that your team is productive (would that be considered nudging? Not sure...)
