Inside the Mind of a Micromanager

A group explores why micromanagers care so much and what beliefs drive them to control everything. The fix isn't to care less but to ask what only you can do, set an 80% good enough threshold, and actually train people instead of redoing their work.
Who had more than a 70 on micromanagement.
Not too many.
Three, four. Okay, so strengths of a micromanager. Passion, drive, intensity of care, high standards.
Right there.
The only person that can do it right. But distorted beliefs are in the time it takes to train, I can do it myself. And that's like a surefire way to.
Be doing that thing forever.
Whether it's working with buyers or whether.
It'S, you know, on listing appointments or whatnot.
My people are incompetent and no one.
Cares like I do.
Questions to consider.
What are the things that only you can do?
And even if you don't have a.
A staff and someone that sort of.
Caters to implementing your systems, your ideas.
But just think about what are the.
Things that only you can do in your business.
For my real estate business right now.
It'S more I've actually stepped down into.
So for those of you who's read the book Traction. So there's a visionary. I'm a true visionary.
Not just because it sounds cool, but.
I'm just way out there.
But I've got to act more as.
A CEO of my business right now. So I'm kind of doing that role in my business.
But as a visionary.
It's just casting the future. We're doing some core value stuff which is really impactful in our business. We're holding quarterly meetings. I'm doing weekly leadership meetings, those sorts of things. I'm stepping into the sales meetings now because our sales are not exactly where we want them to be.
In the coaching business, it's.
And I should be doing more content.
Creation in my real estate business. So that's part of it too. In the coaching business, content creation and marketing too. We're hiring a full time marketing manager in the real estate company.
I really do like marketing.
I really have a passion for marketing.
All right.
Do you have perfectionistic tendencies?
Does team have authority to take responsibility?
Key transformations, realizing that good enough is good enough.
No.
There's a difference between mediocre and good enough is good enough. It's that last 10%.
Like you don't want. Mediocre is 50%. Yeah.
When you get to 80% is when.
You should ship it.
When you should be done with it.
It. I've been pretty good at just good.
Enough is good enough on a lot of things.
Difference between management and control and then.
Understanding the value of training. And as entrepreneurs, we are the worst.
Trainers that we just have no patience for training. So just being aware of that.
