Some teams are still running on 1980s leadership.
Command and control. Decisions made behind closed doors and announced, not discussed. Hierarchy that rewards obedience over honesty. Feedback that shows up once a year in a review, if it shows up at all.
It worked when the world moved slower. When people stayed in one job for decades. When “because I said so” was a leadership strategy, not a red flag.
But the world changed.
Teams changed.
And people want to be led and inspired!
Does your team still operate like in the 1980s?
