In this episode, we explore the hidden psychology behind micromanagement and why even well-intentioned managers fall into controlling behaviors that crush team morale and innovation.

What You'll Learn:

  • The real emotional cost of micromanagement (it's not just about productivity)
  • 3 warning signs you might be micromanaging without realizing it
  • Why smart people stop suggesting innovative solutions
  • 2 practical strategies to shift from controlling to coaching
  • The difference between being a resource vs. a gate-keeper for your team

Key Takeaway: The best managers are barely noticed day-to-day, but their absence would be immediately felt. Learn how to build trust instead of undermining it.

Perfect for developers, designers, product managers, and tech leaders who want to create environments where teams actually thrive.
