[Bobwhite Blather] Micromanaging: a bad idea

[Bobwhite Blather Scouting Blog]

Bobwhite Blather has posted a new item, 'Micromanaging: a bad idea'

We've all been there, I'm sure. We've worked for, or with, someone who quite
figuratively can't see the forest for the trees. Someone who fusses over every
small detail of a project, process or workplace and who directs even the most
minute function, whether it's something he or she knows about or not.

Micromanaging, as it's come to be known, is the bane of corporate existence.
Articles and entire books have been written about the phenomenon and what to do
about it. It has even spawned a wildly popular comic strip, Dilbert, in which a
typical engineer is tormented daily by his boss with inane orders, processes and
obstacles to getting any work done.

Unfortunately, Scouting isn't exempt from the micromanagers.
