Taking credit for employees work or ideas. 2. Not appearing to trust or empower employees. 3. Not caring if employees are overworked. 4. Not advocating when it comes to monetary compensation. 5. Hiring or promoting the wrong people 6. Not backing employees when there is a dispute with a client. 7. Not providing proper direction on assessments/roles 8. Micromanaging and doesn’t allow freedom to work. 9. Focusing more on weakness than your strengths. 10. Not setting set clear expectations. Your employees are your agency's #1 asset.
