We're talking about the six habits that great leaders avoid. In the last month's episode, we talked about the first three. We are going to avoid and stop the habit of number one, doing too much. Number two, the habit of avoiding conflict. Number three, we're going to avoid the habit of doing what you've always done. Today, we're gonna talk about four, five, and six.

I'll tell you what they are, then we'll dive into each one of them. Number four, if you have this habit, you're gonna quit the habit of micromanaging. Number five, you're gonna quit the habit of hiding in leadership. And number six, you're gonna quit the habit of hesitation. The habit of micromanaging, the habit of hiding, and the habit of hesitation.

Now, the good news is, if you have bad leadership habits, Breaking free from these habits is not just possible, but it is game changing. So we're going to stop doing what's holding you back, and we're going to create the right habits to propel you forward. So let's start, first of all, with one of the most common bad habits.

152.091 - 172.996 Craig Groeschel

You see it in leaders across the board, and that is the bad habit of micromanaging. If you've never worked for a micromanager, you should just thank God in heaven right now. If you've never worked under an overly controlling leader, you're very fortunate because this is a very, very common bad habit in leaders. What happens?

173.456 - 196.856 Craig Groeschel

The overly controlling leader eventually becomes the greatest limiting force to organizational progress. Because over time, a micromanager really does three things. You're going to see a micromanager destroy trust, limit leadership development, and increase turnover. Every single time you see a micromanager, those three things happen. They destroy trust.
