Many new leaders fall into the trap of micromanagement despite their best intentions. It is essential to take a ruthless inventory of your relationship with control, your expertise, and the support you need to be curious and vulnerable.

Proactively communicating your vision and expectations is critical to motivating employees in complexity—even when you don’t have all the answers. If you feel your vision is getting lost in translation, a 360-degree review can help you prioritize where and how to grow as a leader.

A leadership philosophy alone will not solve the challenge of a culture transformation effort or a strategy refresh. However, it can help be a foundation for who you are in challenging moments.
