Having a good #LineManager in #HigherEducation is an absolute boon & game changer.

After decades of VERY poor, uninspiring, useless and professionally & mentally damaging line management in #UK #universities, I had absolutely no idea of what a good line manager actually does.

They:

#listen
#care
#trust
#suggest
#MakeEnquiries
#Facilitate
#KeepInTouch
#remember
#share
#explain
#motivate
#encourage
#inform
#LeadByExample

Similar to my exceptional #PhD #supervisors.

Thank you #OpenUniversity
