People aren't mind readers.

It's not "handholding". And it's not about a "resources" mentality or wanting to "make it rain".

The best engineers can have wildly different and incompatible communication styles at first. Nobody is wrong, just different.

I don't know what to tell you, except that your approach is basically wishful thinking, in my experience.

And things like standups and retrospectives are where your employees come together as a team.
