Imagine your organization as a cruise ship you’re the captain of. It is your responsibility to man the helm, keeping the vessel away from danger and navigating to the correct destination. Along the way you decide that the guests’ towels need to be folded a particular way, so you step away from your post for hours to meticulously fold them to your exact specifications. You do a great job but in your absence the ship is listless, veering off course into dangerous waters. 

Of course it’s very likely you won’t find yourself in this EXACT situation, but the same logic can be applied to our terrestrial pursuits as well. In today’s episode, Craig and Greg discuss why it’s important for leaders to remain in control, but also vital that we don’t become controlling.
