Helping Micromanagers see the bigger pic...

The show that uses the world around us to explore how Leadership can be inspired by Agility
About this episode

Has micromanagement really gone away? In this episode we discuss how subtler forms have become more common place and how complex work requires leaders to be far more attentive and supportive than ever before.Our journey starts with how and why micromanagement occurs, the impact it has on employees and importantly how a leader you can recognise their own patterns of behaviour.  Using a 10 year research study conducted by 3 professors as our guide (https://hbr.org/2021/01/how-to-help-without-micromanaging), we continue on by exploring the strategies you need to shift towards real agile leadership.Enjoy the episode!
