That all changed when his boss changed.
It got ridiculous, so I flat out told him, "I know you're doing this b/c your boss micromanages you, but really, you're driving me crazy" and it stopped right then and there. I'm guessing he didn't realize he was driving his team to the very edge of their sanity until I brought it up.
I think it helps if you bring it out in the open instead of secretly hating him/her for it. Depending on the kind of relationship you have with your mgr. you might want to "soften" the way I put it  |
Hmmm, good idea. Similiarly, before it wasn't like this - until my director was promoted and relocated to another system. I think our VP has always been a micro-manager, but the old director deflected most of it from his staff since it wasn't like this until he left. Maybe our new director hasn't learned the "deflection" technique or something. lol
