Work Together On Deadlines
Some managers accept or create unreasonable expectations on performance without checking in with their workers, thus causing stress.
A good manager should talk to their employees and ensure expectations are well thought out and feasible before being defined.
Stop Micromanaging
Some leaders get too deep in the details around how the actual work gets implemented, but implementation belongs to the employee.
