When Micro-managing Is A Good Idea

Most of us have heard, read, seen, or been told by "experts" that micro managing is ineffective and actually hurts our performance. In addition, it jeopardizes the performance of our staff, both individually and collectively.

Yet there are situations that good supervision almost mandates some micro managing to achieve desired results in reasonable time frames. Though most experienced, successful managers would rather eat live insects than admit they sometimes micro manage, all good professionals do it in certain situations.

If there is any chance of employees misunderstanding the task or project you want to be performed, you will be rewarded for "temporarily" micro managing your staff. By being clear and precise in your instructions, your employees will know exactly what you want and will typically be a bit more careful to give you specifically what you requested.
