Hello and welcome ๐Ÿ‘‹

the Managers Toolkit is a collection of templates, tips and tricks and links and posts from me. Itโ€™s been put together based on personal experience, spending countless hours on validating templates and documents in the real world.

<aside> ๐Ÿ‘‰ Throughout the pages and templates youโ€™ll find tips and comments similar to this one. These are intended to be removed. They focus on sharing context on each document.

Who are you and why is this available for free?

Iโ€™m Roman, Product and Engineering Leader from Austria. If youโ€™re interested and curious to collaborate, please check out romankuba.me for contact and details.

This is free because I want to help others to have a great experience as managers and being managed.

I do not use Notion, is this still valuable?

Yes, this first version is built with Notion because itโ€™s a great tool create, manage and share content. But itโ€™s not a requirement. You might want to try out the Template buttons and such to get all the content. Just copy paste everyhing you need into your tool of choice.

I personally just like the way Notion works, and it often clicks with how I think about documents.

Adjust the templates to how you like to work, and remix them as you see fit.
