John Jonas explains why daily reports matter: they stop micromanagement by letting teams report progress themselves, so managers can give feedback and change direction when needed. Reports show your team is working, progressing, reliable, and willing to ask for help.
In all of this. To me, it's just the habit of the report that makes such a difference for me. It's super important for me because I don't want to micromanage what's going on. I don't want to have to think about the tasks and wonder about them. I want them to tell me, and then I can give feedback, I can give training, I can. I can change direction, I can pivot, I can do whatever I need based off of them telling me what they're doing. The daily report tells me that they're working, that they're progressing, that they're loyal. It tells me they're there when I need them. It tells me that they're not afraid to ask for help. It tells them that I'm not here for them when I respond to them, it's a really good situation.
