Four Mistakes Managers Make

• Failing to allow autonomy in carrying on the work
• Frequently asking subordinates about their work without providing any real help
• Micromanaging leaders are quick to affix personal blame rather than guiding subordinates in an open exploration of causes and possible solutions.
• Failing to share information with team members about their own work – Guarding knowledge as a marker of status and doling it out as a favor is a bad idea.

   Oops, your headline says Principal (at first I thought the book was going to be about school principals who are progressive) but it should say principle.
