How to become a supermanager with AI
 Last week’s guest post about tactics for becoming a “super IC” is on track to being my most popular post of all time, so I’m thrilled to bring you a follow-up that’s designed specifically for managers. In spite of what you may hear, we will still need (great) managers in the future—to scale (well-functioning) teams, to mentor and coach individuals, and to think beyond the day-to-day. Below, Hilary Gridley, director of product management at WHOOP, shares strategies she’s learned to leverage the latest AI tools to not just become a better manager but to level up her entire team. These tactics and tools are practical and actionable, and you can start experimenting with them today, even if you’re not managing. This post blew my mind when I first read it, and I’m very excited to share it with you.
Hilary Gridley is the director of product management at WHOOP, where she oversees the core product team, including AI, Health, and Coaching initiatives, specializing in combining AI with evidence-based approaches to help millions improve their health and performance. Previously, she was a senior director of product at Big Health, a product marketer at Dropbox, and designed youth advocacy campaigns with major brands like H&M and 3M that engaged millions of young people.
