The best manager that I ever had was someone who did regular check-ins. We would meet at least once a week, maybe every other week, and just touch base in regards to what we were each working on, how we could help each other, anything that we could do to help one another. She also really checked in on me on a personal level, which I appreciate in a workspace, and I also felt well compensated in that position. Those are all things that I would say worked together that made her be the best manager that I ever worked with.
