Being a leader isn’t easy. In this episode, I share four common traps that leaders fall into and explain how successful leaders avoid them.
Today, I talk about the four common traps that successful leaders must avoid. I note the dangers of micromanagement, explaining why it leads to counterproductivity. I note the power of appreciating unique contributions, stressing the importance of catching people doing the right things instead of just the wrong things. I urge you to be proactive in problem-solving instead of waiting for problems to arise, and I note the power of sharing openly and the importance of not letting your insecurities overcome you.
“Someone is always watching you, how you behave. And if you are living your life problem to problem, micromanaging action and reaction, the team will follow suit and only work to put fires out instead of innovating.”
