Micromanagement in the workplace is treating people like inmates and them acting like prisoners. Not only that it harms the team’s morale but also impacts the whole organization in terms of productivity and accountability. Simple as it seems, taking responsibility and ownership of one’s actions and decisions involve a deeper factor in the organization- TRUST. In today’s episode of the ACCESS Points Podcast, Davin and Tim will talk about the concept of accountability in the workplace. They will share their own history of how they evolve their management techniques that sit well in a contemporary operating environment. They will also dig deeper on why trust and accountability are directly linked with each other and how the leadership team at ACCESS practices what they preach. Enjoy! Favorite Quote "It's that adversity that brings wisdom. And it's those mistakes that make you wise, that make you better. So lean into them. Know that you made it. Own it and be smarter and be wiser because of it.
