I never plan much when I go on vacation, usually I have like 1-2 things I want to do when I go for a week and let the rest be spontaneous.
My father-in-law does a minute plan whenever he travels. It can be fun following him around for like a day but then it gets exhausting and counter to the purpose of going on vacation in the first place (for me).

Private group chats obviously, that's where almost all conversation has moved already.
That sounds more like administration than management. What I believe has been shown in multiple industries (but particularly the public sector ones) is that as administration grows, it decouples from the actual operations of the business itself and becomes self sustaining, and in fact starts doing less actual administration, in not only per capita terms but in absolute terms.
Its kind of like how teachers keep inventing new method to teach that clearly don't work, because thats more fun than just doing the same thing in a fairly formulaic way.
Very few actually want to do the real administrative work, so new more interesting work is invented.
Most managers are actually fairly directly involved with the real operations of the actual business, it's not a support function like more pure administrative departments such as HR.
