Noticing my manager is unloading more of his admin work onto me. He's also failing to meet internal deadlines for deliverables and has failed to do agreed upon pro Dev sessions with me. How to handle?

Agreed - probably has another job lined up. Promotion doesn't matter. Just take on the work and get it done. Make yourself look better. Reach out to a mentor about the pro dev convos and see if they can make the SM conduct them with you.

Best to talk to him 1-1. It is possible your boss is prepping you up for promo, too, that's why he is dumping all that work to you. Being glass half-full here :D

Ask him for help

@sa1 - thought about that but he just got promoted to senior manager (at a very young age). Don't think he's leaving...although he has been a little busier than usual with reviewing deliverables.

I like where EY 1's head is at haha...I think it's best to seek an additional mentor for pro Dev stuff and talk to current manager about his time allocations going forward to set expectation

@ EY2 nice try but I'm not at EY.
