335: Lead with Trust Without Micromanaging to Get Results

Today, Dr. Sabrina Starling and Melissa Kay chat about how micromanaging can really hurt employee morale, lead to burnout, and interfere with team efficiency. They talk about how crucial it is to build a workplace where autonomy and trust are front and center, which can boost performance, job satisfaction, and keep employees around longer. They stress that business owners need to get better at delegating so they can focus on the big stuff and give their team members more power and share some practical tips, like using the "10,000 Hour Activity" chart and setting up efficient systems to help listeners get better at delegating and improve their business overall.
