Ask yourself these questions:

• Do you feel the need to review every task your team completes, even minor ones?
• Do you find it difficult to delegate tasks without giving detailed, step-by-step instructions?
• Do you regularly redo your team members’ work because it doesn’t meet your standards?
• Do you often feel like you’re the only one who can do a task correctly?
• Do you require frequent updates or reports from your team to feel in control of progress?
• Do you regularly follow up on tasks even when deadlines haven’t passed?
• Do you tend to hover or check in while employees are working on a task?
• Do you resist assigning tasks because you believe it’s quicker to do them yourself?
• Do you feel frustrated or anxious when team members make decisions without consulting you?
• Do your employees hesitate to take initiative or make decisions without your input?
• Do you often feel the need to control how tasks are completed rather than focusing on the outcomes?
• Have team members expressed that they feel overly supervised or not trusted?
