" - Megan Scollay-Casillas "It also helps if you are clear about why what they are (or aren’t) doing is a problem for the business. Again it doesn’t matter why it’s a problem for you, but it does matter why it’s a problem for the business. So keep your feelings out of it. That’s not to say don’t be empathetic… but the emotional impact that this behavior is having on you is irrelevant." - Megan Scollay-Casillas. "It’s your job as the manager to remove barriers of success and to clearly define and align your team on the expectations you have. It is not your job to find the solution by yourself.

Remember that being proactive in your constructive feedback is key, and delegation builds trust and gives team members the opportunity to develop their skills. Press play to learn more!
