Modern Managers: Focus on People, Not Politics

Everyone assumes knowledge managers are just glued to their screens dealing with data,

but the research proves the exact opposite. A study compared modern tech-savvy

managers to traditional bosses from the 80s, and the results are wild.

Today's managers actually spend way more time on human stuff—like motivating, staffing,

and training—than the old guard ever did. It turns out that advanced software

handles the boring routine communication, freeing them up to actually focus on their teams.

But here is the catch. Even though they spend their days helping people,

the managers who actually get promoted are still the ones prioritizing networking and office politics.
