Jim O'Shaughnessy, in a conversation with Shreyas Doshi, discussed the importance of understanding biases and how the world operates to be an effective manager. They highlighted two key points:
-
First Impressions: It is wise not to form fixed impressions of people based on initial interactions. While creating a good first impression is crucial, one should also avoid making quick judgments about others based solely on the first few seconds of meeting them.
-
Great Managers: To build a successful career, it is often advised to seek a great manager. Conversely, if you are in a managerial position, strive to be a great manager yourself. This not only attracts talented individuals to work for you but also sets a solid foundation for their career development. This involves understanding how to make learning engaging and effective for your team without solely relying on entertainment tactics.
These insights stress the balance between perceiving and incorporating the realities of human interactions while fostering an engaging and supportive environment for your team 1 .
