Are you a bit of a control freak? (Like me!) 😬
Sometimes perfection and can be the enemy of greatness, particularly when it comes to delegation — holding us back from making progress because we need everything to be “just so”. 👌
However, sometimes leaders attempt to delegate, and find that the person they delegated to doesn’t do a good job.
🤦♂️ They make mistakes.
🤦♂️ They ask repeated questions.
🤦♂️ They completely miss the whole point!
The leader ends up with the work back on their plate, and resolves that they are just too much of a control freak to hand the work over… they end up trapped!
So in this episode I go deep into this issue — how you can embrace just the right amount of your inner control freak to get amazing results when delegating… and the real life examples of it going well, and spectacularly wrong!
