Anyone think Adam Grant is starting to lose his mojo ?? Not saying employees should be monitors but the last part is so absurd.. If there can be different types of leaders why can the not be employees

Wrong bowl but I’ll say he has the qualifications to an expert in his field. He makes an excellent point about not measuring performance by spying on keystrokes and activity. Not sure what you’re debating here, micromanagement is never a reflection of happy employees and good leadership.

Don’t have a strong opinion on him in general, but he’s absolutely correct about this one

Some people need to be micromanaged, and some, with self/situational awareness, leadership needs to recognize who do not need to be micromanaged.

I am personally NOT a fan of micromanaging people or being micromanaged, but I have recognized situations where some employees need a push and that push comes from ensuring they are on the right track.

In regards to Adam himself, no particular opinion. He seems to be catering to the majority anyway.

I roll my eyes every time he posts something. Nuance never exists for him nor does perspective of working outside of a university.

Actually saw a job description for company recently where they want you on camera for the entire time (recorded) and keystroke logging.

Humans are humans, whether they are in the management or not. In my experience, the same analysts and consultants who crib about work life balance and micromanagement, when they become managers and above, mostly do nothing different and then analyst and consultants below them crib. Same holds good for SMs, they complain about PMDs, but when they move to the dark side, they do exactly the same thing their PMDs did to them.
Humans are hypocrites. A LinkedIn post can’t solve that.

As I'm moving to a new role in a small company, I have a doubt about my salary structure like the Basic salary part is only 20,000 while my take home is 62k after all deductions.

I'm concerned because the leave encashment & other things totally depends on the basic salary.

Are there not any rules for the Basic salary to be at a certain % of CTC or it depends totally on the company?

Also PF deductions they are offering only 1800 p.m but considering 20000 basic it should be 12% of 20000 right?
