It’s been a good run, but have I been a good manager?

This issue's feature talks about being a good manager. As I was editing the piece, I couldn't help but think, have I been a good manager to my absolutely wonderful team of writers without whose support this publication would fall in an instance?

As I write my last editor's note for this wonderful publication that I have been a part of since its very beginning, I look back at this journey that has been nothing less of a roller coaster ride in every sense. I can't tell if I was a good manager or not, but I have had the privilege of working with the two most brilliantly wonderful bosses, who allowed me to make horrifying mistakes and learn from them, and an amazing team that helped me to grow every step of the way.

As I step into my next endeavour, I take with me everything that these people have given me, the guidance, the warmth and the unexpected amount of love and patience that I'll be forever grateful for.

It's been quite a long run, and a great one.
