You would think that keeping the team effective is the basic job of a manager. Dealing with people who don't know how to do some part of their own job is of course an unfortunate, yet inevitable reality. But this is on the level of "developer who doesn't know how to code". The article leaps into teaching the manager to do their job, but often just switching teams or companies is much easier. Plus, after you put in all the effort, not every manager can turn around and appreciate it, many will just take credit and give you nothing. So if you're going this direction, there should be some thought given to deciding whether your manager would recognize your efforts.
