Description

We know we can't do *everything* ourselves in our teams and in our businesses, but sometimes doesn't it just feel like things would go faster if we could?
Spoiler, not only does this belief actually slow us down, it makes our team members think we don't trust them, which leads to low morale and even lower productivity. 
In this episode of Managing Made Simple, I talk about the reasons why we fall into the trap of wanting to do everything ourselves, and how to break free of it.
