Programmer growth Article 20: what should I pay attention to when I am just promoted to manager?

I remember when I was able to be the team leader , A big reason is that I caught up with the rise of Android smartphones , At that time Android( Android ) Not much research and development . I should be 2012 Annualized Android Research and development .

As the company develops , Business needs to expand , I was in charge of Android、J2ME、window mobile Three product lines , I can't help myself . Need to recruit , So naturally, he was promoted to the head of the company team . At that time, I first took 2 personal , Slowly increase to 5 individual .

Now look back at the beginning , I made a lot of mistakes .

One 、 Do all the difficult things by yourself

In general, the team leader is the most skilled , The team leader tackles technical difficulties , It's logically reasonable . But think about it , If the team leader does the most difficult task every time , Can the team members still grow ？

Two 、 High requirements for team members

I always think there's nothing wrong with demanding team members , Only when you have requirements can you grow . But everyone's abilities are different , The effect must be different . Use your ability to ask everyone , Is that reasonable ？

3、 ... and 、 Team members have problems , Do it yourself

Due to the lack of work experience , There will be many inexplicable problems . And these questions may seem simple to you , Instead of teaching him principles , Let him solve , You might as well do it yourself , Maybe it'll be done in a few minutes . Especially when the project time is tight , You have a lot to do yourself , Where are you free to teach . ok , Think carefully , Is this the purpose of the team members ？

Four 、 I don't know project management

Although everyone should be responsible for his task , You can assign tasks and leave them alone , Wait until the time of acceptance to find problems . It's postponed , You can deduct their performance , But is this what you want ？

People are lazy , How to give full play to the subjective initiative of team members , How to boost the project through the process , This is what the team leader needs to think about .

5、 ... and 、 You won't fire people

The team leader usually interviews in the first round , Even if the noodles are bad , And the director . But when someone comes in , Well done , The team leader is the one who feels the most .

Is this man doing well ？ Can you cultivate ？ How did you perform during the probation period ？ If he doesn't meet your expectations , Why don't you fire him ？

I hope these questions can give you some thoughts . Everyone has different answers , I'll talk about it in detail later .

Today, I will give some directional suggestions to managers who are new to the workplace

1、 Change your mind , From focusing on doing things , Change to focus on training people to do things . Learn how to know people 、 Of choose and employ persons .

2、 More often than not, I don't think about how to work more , Instead, consider how to give full play to the technical advantages of everyone in the team , Reasonable distribution of work , Let everyone get exercise , Improve team capabilities .

3、 There are standards in doing things 、 Principle . Expectations related to subordinates 、 The goal is , Let subordinates participate in the formulation , Only by reaching consensus can we implement .
