Most of a manager's work is invisible to their team. Based on my time as a software engineering manager and principal engineer at Microsoft, Amazon, Google, this video describes the variety of work a software engineering manager does.
This video should be useful for individual contributors who are curious about the management path, and for those who are frustrated that their managers don't "do" anything.
Note - a viewer pointed out I was using the wrong name for Amazon planning. It's not "OLR", that's performance reviews!!!
