I manage at a lower level, a team of developers. I’m a big fan of stating a clear goal and letting the developer/team decide how to tackle. I may have suggestions, I may veto proposed solutions if I have legitimate problems with it, but ultimately I want them to be the drivers. In my experience they take ownership, are more motivated, and it helps them grow. They’re more likely to solve little problems on their own and only involve me as needed.
