Managing people teaches important lessons. Everyone is different. Talk well. Trust matters. Conflicts happen. Be ready. Change is normal. Feedback helps. Take care of yourself. Learning these things helps teams grow strong.
I personally think that managing becomes very much easy ones you know the limits of your team. Like at which pace each and every member of the team can work, what are there abilities and all that. And I think all this you learn as the time goes. You cannot learn all this before stepping into managing role.
I learned that managing anything is not easy. I wasn't surprised; but still it's true, and you don't realize until you do it. 😆
