I think you are too self-centered as of now. You need to de-focus.

To do that, the best advice I can give you is Travel (obviously once the corona thing is taken care of). Travel a lot and do travel on shoestring budget. This gives you the opportunity to meet new people, new geographies and help you cultivate new ideas and slowly form a picture of your life on your own.

This also helps you in start to focus on others instead of your own self at all times.

Focus the conversations around your experience being an EM in your current role. Do NOT expect that you should know (or should have experienced) certain things because you are a manager in your current role...just accept candidly what you have experienced and what you haven't.

Management is all about experience.

He will win

Here is the catch in your statement:

"giving them some sort of responsibility to complete those tasks"

1) Why do you have to give this on a daily basis? Assuming everyone in your team is dedicated and responsible, then why.

2) asking for help and advice should not wait for the next standup. If someone is stuck, they should reach out for help right away than waiting for next standup.

Would love to speak to you about where your understanding is. Share what I know and see if we can add to each other's understanding. Hit me up on hangout, [email protected]
