Micromanagement and Favoritism Make Work DifficultThe good thingsNone. There are no good things here.
The challengesCurrent Superior
• Avoids taking ownership of responsibilities
• Passes work directly to staff with minimal guidance
• Provides little leadership or support, which is why many are resigning
• Lacks understanding of some processes and relies on staff to explain them before relaying it to the president
President
• Micromanages our daily work
• Questions working hours and task timelines without understanding our actual workload and capacity
• Often raises his voice and embarrasses staff in front of others, creating a stressful work environment
• Focuses on his favorite employee, even when they’re not the one doing most of the work
Colleagues
• Some tenured colleagues tend to keep their knowledge to themselves, which makes it hard to get guidance and forces you to figure things out on your own
• A few tenured staff act like they’re totally loyal to management, even when it doesn’t make sense, like they’re in their own little bubble
