A Moment for My Managers

A Moment for My Managers

To manage me effectively
Is not an idle task.
The answers aren’t always simple
To the questions that I ask.

My goals require patience,
A skill that I’ve had to learn,
And I’ve sometimes found my eyes stray
To new titles I could earn.

It’s my managers who ground me,
And remind me why I’m here.
They’ve encouraged my development
And told truths I need to hear.

In addition, when the time’s been right,
My managers have been
My loyal advocates for growth
And guided my best decisions.

They’ve trusted me with
Projects, big and small.
They’ve been there when I succeed
And they’ve caught me when I fall.

I can’t thank them too much,
They’ve taught me everything I know.
A moment for my managers,
It’s you who made me grow.
