Does your team struggle to feel engaged in their projects? It may be because they have a lack of ownership in their work. Managers, you should be encouraging your team members to take strong ownership of their work. Foster a strong sense of ownership by giving them the ability to make their own decisions, and avoid micromanaging. Every project should be OURS (as a team), not MINE (as a leader who owns the project and is simply telling their subordinates what to do). Dr. Matthew F. Wilson, owner of the Ownership Academy and author of Ownership Unlocked: 4 Principles to Build Self-Driven Teams That Take Initiative, Innovate, and Win, joins us to discuss why it is important for leaders to reconsider their strategies when it comes to encouraging their team members to take the lead.
