Detailed explanation-1: -Micromanaging or micromanagement is a negative term that refers to management style. It is very well defined by Gartner: Micromanagement is a pattern of manager behavior marked by excessive supervision and control of employees’ work and processes, as well as a limited delegation of tasks or decisions to staff.
Detailed explanation-2: -Doing the work of others rather than trusting employees to complete tasks themselves is one of the most common personality traits of a micromanager. They often take work upon themselves because they are typically worried that the work will not be completed correctly if they delegate it to someone else.
Detailed explanation-3: -Micromanaging is autocratic leadership that disavows the abilities of others; employees are treated like blocks of marble that the leader must put wax in to cover imperfections.
Detailed explanation-4: -Micromanagers may have good intentions, but in fact, more often than not they have negative consequences and enjoy their work less than if they adopted a different style. Micromanaging does not help anyone make the most of their time, effort or the company’s money.
