Roles and responsibilities

 One key thing in managing projects is having clear roles and responsibilities.

But what would happen if leaders just try to delegate everything to others? What is the leader's role? Is it to motivate, to encourage, or to show the direction?

For some, the answer is all of it. For other leaders is to not be involved at all and just give direction and disappear in the way of others.

But when this happen what are the leader’s role and responsibility and do we still need such leaders in 2022?

The thing is middle management is going extinct, more and more roles and responsibilities are assigned to the low level of management so if the time comes and someone ask you what would happen if we fire you and your answer is nothing, than you are in a trouble.

It’s better for you to define clearly your role and responsibilities before someone else makes you obsolete.

The domain x.com pointed yesterday to a page with one character “X”. Today it redirects to the twitter domain and soon we might see the dead of the bird and the birth of the symbol “X”. This change will be followed carefully and we can all learn from the mistakes Elon Musk will do during this transition. He already is very famous with the mistakes he did during his first weeks in the company. Can the company survive such a transformation is another open question? There are already some competitors like Mastodon and Instagram very own Threads. But the vision of Elon Musk is to turn this app more like WeChat, the Chinese mega app that combines many features.
