I got promoted recently and thought showing up, unblocking tickets, and running meetings meant I was making an impact. My director told me:

“You’re busy, but I can’t see your impact.” It made me realize: maybe effort isn’t the same as impact.

How do you show that your work as a manager actually moves the needle—for your team, your product, or the company?

What’s worked for you in proving real managerial impact?
