The sheer amount of variables for what makes a good manager in what situation is mind boggling.

I was a manager a while back, then back to an engineer at another company and now I’m an engineering manager at a new one. I think there are soft skills that have translated well across the roles but each business has needed a different managerial approach.

There might be really niche blogs out there about managing in certain environments but I can’t say I actively search them out.
