EM Productivity hacks
As an EM, how do you keep yourself sane? Would you recommend any 'must-try-productivity-hacks' ?
For context - I manage a 9 member team now and in the process of taking up another team in the next few months.

> Delegation is #1 productivity hack.
I think I have gotten better at this.
I follow
Identifying the right candidate -> Plan/Prepare -> Discuss the task -> Talk about milestones/checkpoints -> final review of the outcome.
I think I spend a lot of time in the Plan / Prepare step. In the interest to get things done faster / not dropping the ball when it comes to Quality.
Any tips?
