A lot of the intent you infer in the statements from the article I didn't infer at all. Having been a manager myself for years I pretty much guarantee that this quote was not about a desire to skip 1-on-1s:


Indeed. The quote was about the realities of things on a massive multimillion dollar project getting busy and the natural human tendency to think skipping a step or a review will turn out just fine. He making the case that you must value your people enough to never run the risk that comes with thinking they’re just fine.

Twisting that to say he want to cut corners is... at best... a serious lack of reading comprehension.

I think this observation abit on a strong side. It's not a a serious lack of reading comprehension, more a simple mistake. You are reading from a vet, if you will, reflecting off stories from the trenches. Unless of course, you think 80-100 hour weeks of crunch time is reasonable. In that case... carry on.

Nither agreeing nor disagreeing, just taking a note off the potency.
