From all the management blogs, stories from Mike Fisher always resonate with me somehow. At least, those stories that get to me.

You Can’t Fake Belonging is a story of that feeling that is hard to put into words, but that greatly defines if your job is an interesting journey or a soul crushing routine.

From the first few paragraphs, I assumed that this would be yet another "office good" article, but it isn't! Let him cook and hopefully, this article would be insightful for you as well!

What I especially liked about it is the description of the manager's role. I guess everyone can name a good and a bad manager they had in the past, but it's not always clear why one of them was good and another one - bad. Also, the last bit hits hard: "The most dangerous person on your team isn’t the loudest critic or the lowest performer. It’s the one who has quietly decided they don’t belong here, started to believe it, and hasn’t left yet."
