[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You need to manage up and give him the context he needs for management decisions. This is really common in nearly every fed job - people rotate in (political, military, career management) and they do management tasks, and the subject matter experts do the work. Honestly, a manager who does admin tasks timely and doesn't parachute into your projects is a dream, keep this guy and help him succeed. [/quote] Yep. This is time to manage up and help him learn this stuff. Don't expect him to know how long stuff takes; tell him how long you estimate it will take. Ask for check-ins where you go over this. [/quote]
