AUTO-TRIGGER: Apply this skill when the user is managing a small team of two to six direct reports in a marketing, demand gen, or RevOps function.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Small Team Management: People Skills for the Practitioner Who Came Up Through the Function

This skill addresses the people management challenges of a Director
who built their career in demand gen, RevOps, or marketing operations
and now manages a small team of two to six people. Most Directors in
this position learned their function deeply but learned management on
the job. The result is a leader who is technically excellent and
managerially uneven, not because they are not capable, but because
no one taught them the specific skills that make a small team work.

The problems this skill addresses are different from HR problems.
HR manages processes, documentation, and legal compliance. This skill
manages the actual human dynamics of a small team: how to have the
feedback conversation that changes behavior, how to identify the person
who is quietly underperforming before it becomes a crisis, how to run
a one-on-one that is worth the time on both sides, and how to make
the call on letting someone go without doing it wrong.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add modest-curator478/claude-skills/small-team-management@sha256:0150018990555acc

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
