You’re not a micromanager. Of course you’re not. You’re just detail-oriented. Sure. Let’s go with that.

In this episode, Jeff Matlow delivers the kind of gut-punch you didn’t know you needed – a surgically precise, deeply funny takedown of every excuse leaders use to avoid the word “micromanager.” Spoiler: the only person who doesn’t see it is you. 

Prepare for:

⏵ The outdated definition you’re hiding behind – why “I don’t hover” doesn’t mean what you think it means

⏵ The fear you won’t name

⏵ The self-fulfilling prophecy of control 

This one’s not comfortable. It’s not supposed to be. But if you make it to the end, you might finally understand why your team has stopped trying.

🎧 Tune in now — your team is already whispering. Time to find out why.
