Description

Welcome to the Manager Lab! In this episode, we explore the delicate balance of effective leadership, drawing insights from the July 2025 Harvard Business Review article by Melody Wilding. Discover the transformative potential of the "visibility grid," a practical framework designed to help leaders determine the right level of oversight for various projects.


With the visibility grid, leaders can effortlessly map projects based on risk and team experience to decide the frequency and detail of updates required. This structure empowers leaders to remain informed and proactive without falling into the trap of micromanagement.


Join us to learn how to apply this adaptable tool for improved project oversight, team autonomy, and personal growth in leadership dynamics.
