Russian business is not killed by 'seagull managers'
Russian business is not killed by 'seagull managers'.
It's a symptom. Not the cause.
You can change people as much as you want:
- fire one
- hire another
- invite a "strong manager"
But this won't save the business.
The problem is almost always elsewhere:
β broken processes β chaotic funnel β manual management β lack of systemic logic
What does a 'seagull' do?
- creates the appearance of control
- assigns tasks
- pushes for speed
But if the process is flawed - it simply accelerates degradation.
Team burnout is not the cause.
It's a side effect of a poorly designed system.
The truth that people usually don't like
π managing people is useless if you don't manage the process
The only thing that really works
- Dissect business processes
- Find bottlenecks in the funnel
- Eliminate manual operations
- Automate decision-making
And this is where the main part begins.
The Next Level
It's not about "hiring stronger people".
It's about:
π replacing manual management with a system π delegating routine to AI agents π optimizing not people, but the flow
Not:
"the manager pushes the team"
But:
π the system itself drives the process π agents make decisions π the funnel optimizes automatically
While you treat people - the business continues to fall apart.
When you fix the process - people start working normally on their own.
Don't manage people.
Design the system.
