Leadership & executive presence
When do you notice your decision-making slows down—lack of data, fear of backlash, or something else?
The one leadership habit that often delivers results but quietly drains your energy is the tendency to micromanage. While it may seem necessary to ensure tasks are done correctly, micromanaging can lead to burnout, decreased team morale, and a loss of trust. If you could replace this habit with empowering your team and trusting their capabilities over the next 30 days, you'd likely notice increased productivity, stronger relationships, and a more sustainable leadership style. This shift would free up your energy, allowing you to focus on strategic growth and innovation, ultimately creating a healthier and more dynamic work environment.

Answer:
The leadership habit that drives results but drains energy most quietly is over-responsibility — the reflex to carry the emotional and operational weight of everything that happens in your team.
It delivers short-term control and fast execution, but it erodes creativity, trust, and long-term resilience.
If you replace that habit with structured delegation — defining ownership, accountability, and clear boundaries — you’ll notice within 30 days that decisions become faster, communication cleaner, and energy more balanced.
Leadership is not about holding all control, but about creating a system where others can operate confidently without constant oversight.
