#59 The Hero Manager

from The Leadership Shot Hosted by Leila Bulling Towne

You’re overcommitted, overwhelmed, and always the one who gets it done. Sound familiar? Then you might be a hero manager—someone who rescues projects, solves problems, and unintentionally teaches their team to step back instead of stepping up. In this episode of The Leadership Shot, Leila breaks down the signs you’re stuck in hero mode, the hidden costs of doing too much, and five ways to step back without letting your team fail. Because leadership isn’t about being the savior. It’s about building people who don’t need one.
