The Hidden Enemy: Micromanagement
Micromanagement is the sneaky twin of trusting—it whispers, "I can’t rely on anyone else." This habit erodes confidence and stalls progress. Replace that inner critic with a trusting mindset: 1. Identify moments you feel the urge to control. 2. Pause and ask, "What evidence do I have that my teammate can succeed?" 3. Delegate a small, concrete task and trust the outcome.
