00:00:00.140 Managers are the most hated role in any company.

00:00:03.680 They're being tasked with unclear direction

00:00:06.560 from senior leaders to then try to translate that

00:00:10.360 to the frontline workers.

00:00:11.740 And then those people are like,

00:00:13.480 I hope you're representing our thoughts,

00:00:15.480 our feedback, our concerns, our ideas to the senior leaders.

00:00:19.500 The managers are sitting in the middle

00:00:20.880 trying to make it all work.

00:00:22.140 And guess what?

00:00:23.000 When it doesn't go good, they get all the blame.

00:00:25.840 When things go right, they get none of the praise.

00:00:28.360 The senior leaders want to praise the frontline workers.

00:00:31.200 They don't realize that the person in the middle that takes that vague feedback, that vague direction,

00:00:37.460 and materialize that into clear vision and marching orders for the people at the frontline to make better decisions,

00:00:44.020 that person in the middle, one of the most talented roles.
