Good Manager is a new-tab replacement extension for Chromium-based browsers (eg Google Chrome, Brave, Vivaldi) and acts as a simple way to motivate me to be a better manager by randomly showing specific quotes/phrases from several categories.
- Behaviors,
- What To Say,
- Feedback,
- Quotes,
- 10 Things That Require Zero Talent,
- Working Remotely.
Good Manager can be:
- accessed here as a normal website or...
- you can download latest
.zip
from Releases (alternatively, you can pack files from this repo into.zip
yourself) and manually add as an extension to your Chromium-based browser. By doing that, any time you open a new tab - Good Manager will load.
Clicking the bulb (💡) will load new quote/text from random category.
Refreshing the page (F5/⌘+R) will load a quote/text from the same category you're currently viewing.
