"'Stand back and let people be successful' advice generally misses the 'create a context in which people can be successful without your intervention' bit, which is by far the hardest part.

"Also this focus on intervening on people (e.g., behaviorist approaches) is a management dead-end. Managers act on the system as a whole."

Something funny happened with the link. Here's the first line, the one I agreed with: https://twitter.com/ReinH/status/1440743288680574977

Managers are responsible to work on the system as a whole, yes, but sometimes intervening on people is what's needed, especially for the other people that have to work with him.

Sorry -- the spurious linefeed bug got it and landed in the middle of the URL, and I forgot to check it when I got up.
