Personal User
Manual

Every team member comes with unwritten rules. Communication preferences, energy patterns, pet peeves, what they need to do their best work. Most conflicts on teams come not from bad intentions but from violated expectations that nobody knew existed.

The problem is that most people assume their preferences are obvious, or they wait for colleagues to figure them out through experience. That process takes months, generates friction, and often produces incorrect conclusions. A Personal User Manual short-circuits all of that.

By making your operating preferences explicit and shareable, you give your team the information they actually need to work with you effectively - from day one, not year two.
