Our manager's previous experience mainly consisted of working on Microstrategy and Qlik reports for executives. He is promoted to lead a team of data scientists and machine learning engineers. He has limited understanding of the intricacies of the machine learning process and over simplifies machine learning .I share Gartner research papers on our groups team's chat. I purposely add extra information in my powerpoint presentation. The aim was for our manager to have access to additional information to improve his understanding. However, despite my efforts, he still doesn't change. He only has surface level knowledge.
Ask if you can present to executives sometimes. Some showing how it's actually done resonates with others better than recommending
he's a people manager, that's expected. Instead of criticizing, work with him based on his strengths. The manager might be good at Data Storytelling which could help increase the visibility of the team especially when the DS/ML team are not producing useful insights to the leadership team. Just consider yourself lucky since you will be spared from being micro managed
I think this is hard because they lack certain knowledge or technical skills. What he would be good at is presentation skills and social skills
Qlik has an AutoML platform if you have the data you can have viable Ml Models in minutes
Most probably not if your manager is not willing to upskill
May be not unless your manager puts in effort
