Tips on How To Deal With A Micromanager

Listen Later

Micromanagers aren't always doing it just to be jerks. They may not even know they are coming across this way. Often they have learned bad habits from other bad leaders. Other times they are under stress and aren't sure how to deal.

Tips:

  1. Try to give them the benefit of the doubt
  2. Try to explain how you felt during a specific time the micro managing was too much
  3. Offer a counter solution
  4. Accept that it may never change and create a plan
  5. Get support from your team
  6. Inform, inform, inform
  7. Think ahead
  8. Uncover the fears
  9. Set boundaries
  10. Evaluate yourself and your work
  11. Proactively work to increase trust where / when you can
