Well said, Thomas. 

Two concrete suggestions:

1) have WGs do the managing role more proactively

Provide WG Chairs the monitoring tools they need to be proactive - Action 
Tracker, what do I need to do today data tracker  views.  Same for AD. 

Same for authors and their mentors, if any.

2) mentor authors and others a bit more to encourage them how best to
operate

Which I suspect means...

0) have ADs manage/mentor the WG chairs more proactively.

Almost certainly a case of "if I had less work to do I would have more time to
do the things that would reduce my workload."  :-)

WG chairs might like to comment, but I suspect that one lunchtime training
session every four months does not constitute proactive management.
