wearsaredhaton Ask HN: What do middle-level managers do?

Highly recommend the book “The Leadership Pipeline” written by Ram Charan. The book focuses on developing a pipeline through which leaders within an organization move and describes accountabilities at each level, along with red flags that indicate that a manager at a given level isn’t operating correctly at said level.

Ram Charan is a well respected author and consultant, who has according to Wikipedia consulted with some of the largest businesses in the US.
