Are you a micromanager? Do you have the tendency to control and specify everything?
Managers who think their employees need to be told exactly what to do in detail, are often at the mercy of micromanagement. They are frustrated. They complain about demotivation and inability of their employees. But they don’t understand: it’s their own fault.
Employees need to know about the overall business vision, about the strategy and about the bigger goals. You as their boss need to talk with them about it.
Your employees need to know where you want to go and why.
Otherwise, how can your employees know what to do and what your expectations are? How can they make decisions in your interest, if they don’t have a clue about the big picture and the direction where the company is heading?
If you want committed employees who work independently you need to learn how to delegate and how to support your employees so they can work on the details without you. And you need to resist your impulse to control and specify everything in detail.
In this video I’ll give you my best 5 best tips to avoid micromanaging.
Here you can read more about it:

BRILLIANT tips. I’ve been micromanaging a lot of things and failing. Thank you so much for this! Please make another video for managers who have OCD and are insane perfectionists; They have no choice but to intervene and micro manage everything coz of their mind. Would be incredibly helpful! God Bless!

summary: talk about your vision, strategy and why you wanna get there. support them and resist the impulse to control every detail 1) focus on the result, not the way to the result. set the goal and let the employeed find their own ways 2) learning from mistakes 3) 80:20 rule (pareto) 4) write your own job description. what are your top 3 responsibilities? (e.g. strategise, innovate, inspire) ... review this 5) pretend it's the day before you go on a vacation. => makes you focus on the tasks that have the highest effect

1. Always focus on the result, not the approach to the result - yes, how employees do something might be different from your approach 2. Employees will make mistakes and learn from mistakes (no mistakes can only happen when no work being done) 3. 80:20 rule (same as the rule from Built to Last: you only need 85% of critical tasks done correctly) 4. Write your own job description and stick to the high priority items 5. Pretend it's the day before you're going on vacation

Mister Bernd, thanks for your such amazing content and helpful advices , I really love your way of teaching and your humbleness! I have one quick question, I work in the company Emaar in Dubai , our company management is very nice, but there are micromanagers , they look at every single tone of our speaking,dressing, chatting , because we are dealing with customers, because of there are monitoring every single ditels, I make more even mistakes, in the office when I start working, I feel very not comfortable and feeling weak , whatever I make mistakes, the managers show them of on the WhatsApp group to all colleagues, i then feel very insecure, I am almost 1 year working in the company, I still feel not confident, even I see the company building from outside , I have hatred working there, please advise me , is it maybe my poor understanding or company poor management?

I think I am both a victim and a perpetrator of micromanagement, thus trying to pay a lot of attention to this. I’m still working on it, but in the meantime I ask myself if I overlooked other aspects of leadership by over-emphasizing this.

I micromanage as an engineer who must delegate to people I don't get to choose. I do not know how to trust anyone when I'm surrounded by people who've been there in less than a year but I am responsible for meeting project deadlines and quality. I desperately need to stop micromanaging and can't figure out how.

Worked for employer for many years who severely micromanaged me and my life. It's partly my fault for tolerating it. In the end I just followed his direction with zero fucks for him, customers and company. Now I have no respect for managers.
