People Managers, how do your job skills translate to raising a kid?

New Manager

As a future father i was wondering if anyone noticed any similarities or things they learned about people management that could be useful in raising a family.

Not doing every Monday a DMS meeting to talk about who cleaned their room, but you know something like helping the children grow or so. Might be complete bullcrap but hell, i thought to ask.

Extra info: All this stems from the conscious lessons i had to learn so far this year to teach my team to grow and be better (leader:leader instead of leader:follower). Company is big on culture and medium for salary, but it is the one that promoted me to manager and i have great work life balance. New manager here so don’t sink me pls.
