As an experienced manager, what's the biggest mistake inexperienced managers make? (Asking for a friend ;))
Ha ha well I don't know how experienced any manager can ever be. I am definitely always learning! But one of the biggest mistakes that I've made in the past is lack of delegation and failure to trust my team and those around me.
Some of the wisest advice I've been given in business is:
  1. Hire people that are better than you, and 2.Trust those people to make the best decisions for the company, even if they weren't the decisions that you would make yourself.
If you don't do these two things you will consistently find yourself overwhelmed with work and unable to actually produce meaningful results. If you were the only person at the company pushing at work, your product becomes a direct reflection of only you and not of the greater collective. You have a much better chance of success when your product or project reflects the collective strengths of a comprehensive and diverse team.
LOL this is not directed at anyone besides myself. I've recently learned this lesson and I think it is reflected in THNDR!
