363: How to Stop Micromanaging and Build an A-Player Team

Are you a business owner who is tired of being the only one to get things right? Are you dealing with team members who are stuck and not taking initiative? You hired a team to take things off your plate, but instead, you’re buried in follow-up, approvals, and rework. Sadly, you’ve unknowingly undermined your team members and trained them NOT to take initiative. Ready to break this cycle?
