Why do people espouse goals like “not to be needed?” I never understood that. It sounds like LinkedIn virtue signaling. It’s a capitalist talking point along the lines of “I seek to be good and inexpensive capital for my corporate masters.”

My goal is to help my team succeed in such a way as to keep my job or else get a better one. Being “not needed” hardly serves that goal.

Look around you. We are in a world that is turning away from middle managers. Don’t play into their hands.
