Are you truly an empowering manager?

If we were asked that question …

We’d likely answer ‘yes’.

But if we asked our teams…

Chances are, they’d disagree with us to some extent.

We see ourselves as supportive and fair leaders.

And we probably are, in many ways.

But are we truly empowering our teams?

Look at these three statements,

1. I feel confident to allow my team to make decisions on their own to ensure customer satisfaction 
2. I don’t blame team members if they make ‘wrong’ decisions
    
3. I coach my team on the decisions they have taken

Can you honestly answer ‘yes’ to each of them?

If you can’t, then isn’t it time you started to truly empower your teams?

It can be hard to start with, but with persistence, in time you’ll get there.

The benefits will be amazing, for your teams, your customers, yourself and the business.
