Avoid these 3 Mistakes if You Hate Being Micromanaged

Do you HATE being micromanaged by your boss?

If you can’t escape your manager’s excessive control, then maybe you are making these 3 mistakes at work:

  1. You are not proactive: If you don’t reach out early to drive projects and let your manager plan everything, you are giving up your autonomy.
  2. You overcommit: If you keep missing deadlines you lose your manager’s trust and they have no choice but to micromange you.
  3. You don’t set boundaries: If you don’t clearly communicate your tasks and progress, your manager will assume you’re confused and will have to interfere.

You can reduce micromanagement by simply building trust with your manager.
