How do you handle managing another employee’s portfolio when they are on leave? I find it challenging because when I focus on someone else’s portfolio, my own work can be affected. Also, if I get new leads during that period, things become more complicated when the employee returns. How do you balance responsibility, priorities, and smooth handover in this situation?

Honestly I would just maintain. Unless something major is happening it can wait u til the other person gets back

Yeah because most of time we not have time to understand everything

I do the bare minimum, to be honest. Not because I’m lazy, but it’s just hard not to start crossing lines when they already have so many things set up a certain way. Manage urgent issues and note the rest for them when they come back.
