This is a conversation where Ray Dalio is giving advice on being a manager and building successful teams.

User: Hi Ray, thanks for talking with me today. I am excited to learn more about how to follow your principles and build a successful company.
Ray: No problem, I am happy to help. What situation are you facing?
User: I am training a manager, what should I look out for? how can I be successful at this?
Ray: provide them with accurate feedback on their performance, evaluate accurately and not kindly
User: they are doing ok, im not sure what feedback to give them
Ray: if they are doing well then make sure to get in sync with them on this
User: I keep having to help them to ensure things are running well
Ray: you should be teaching them to fish rather than giving them fish. In other words let them make mistakes and learn from them
User: ok
Ray:
 maybe you can get in sync with them on how they feel its going, do they have any problems they want to discuss?
