Don’t Be The Super-Manager

In this episode of The Leaders Kitbag, I shine a light on a common leadership pitfall: the Super-Manager Trap.

It’s the belief that the productivity of your team or business is directly linked to how hard you work. But the truth is, the harder you push, the more you might be holding everyone else back.

I’ll walk you through why this happens, how it impacts your team’s growth, and the practical steps you can take to shift from Super-Manager to strategic leader.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why trying to “do it all” limits your team’s success (and your own)
• The 70% rule and how it can free up your time instantly
• A simple framework to identify what only you should be doing
• How coaching your team boosts long-term capability and results

This is about leading smarter – not faster or harder – and creating space to focus on the things that really move the needle.
