Your team’s growth and development may feel stunted as team members miss opportunities to learn and take on new responsibilities. A culture of micromanagement may be eroding trust within your team and diminishing employee morale. It may limit your capacity for strategic thinking and decision-making, as you get bogged down in day-to-day tasks, potentially hindering the organization's long-term success. As well, teams that are micromanaged learn to push everything up to “the boss” because “it is all going to get redone there anyway.”
