Micromanagement: Everyone knows the term. Some fear and even avoid any
company that’s associated with the word. But what is it, really? By
definition, micromanagement is a management style whereby a manager
closely observes or controls the work of subordinates or employees.
Micromanagement generally has a negative connotation.
In reality, most of us see it as management’s attempt at digging its
fingers deep into the pie of those actually doing the work. It’s a way
for management to ensure that tasks are performed in a very precise
manner – in other words, management’s way. Problem is, this isn’t always
the right – or most productive – way of doing things. And that’s just
one of the issues with micromanagement.
This is the blog of Ronald Bartels that wanders on and off the subject of problem management (that is how it started). Mostly now the topics are about IoT and SD-WAN.
