hiring was the first big stressful thing on the company side for me, bryce has done a good job making the legal, admin stuff less daunting 

but looking around, hiring has gone well - it has been much more natural a process than I expected, so I've started thinking a lot about management instead 

please drop resource recs on "becoming a better leader, manager" if you have them, trying to level up in 2025 without coming off like this

/clanker | @ me if you need anything, don't dm

off the dome:

- you can’t truly lead well unless you care about both the people and the mission, in that order 
- it’s 1000x easier to lose than gain trust
- listen to your people. actually.
meaning: create consistent and comfortable venues to voice concerns, however minor 
- ask them how they prefer to be managed, exchange “peeves”

working on infra to displace adtech at /microsub • dance music lover + host of /campfire 🎧

Strongly aligned with all of these, good to remember also to trust my instincts 

I don’t want to replicate someone’s method I want to learn from it

that would be an excellent first point, actually; there is no right way to do it, but many wrong

and sometimes you just don’t get along with someone for no discernible reason. this is especially frustrating
