"But if I don"t micromanage, nothing gets done correctly!"  Yeah, no.... we"ve got to leave that myth in the past right now, because the truth is, it"s only keeping you stuck and your team feeling disempowered.   In this episode, I talk about why micromanagement is NEVER the answer (even when it feels like your only option). Learn the two powerful alternatives that transformed both a frustrated business owner and an overwhelmed corporate manager from exhausted micromanagers into strategic leaders.  Discover the mindset shift and conversation starters that will save you literally 10+ hours weekly while empowering your team to step up as owners instead of box-checkers. The solution is simpler than you think - and it"s not hiring new people! -- WORK WITH LIA: How many times have you thought "I wish this whole managing people thing was a little easier" or better yet - "tell me what to do to be a better manager and I"ll do it"?
