Are you managing your team, or mentoring them? Most leaders default to managing: setting expectations, assigning tasks, checking deadlines and fixing problems as they come up. It keeps things running, but it also keeps your team relying on you for every answer and keeps you stuck in the weeds.
In this episode, we unpack the difference between managing and mentoring, and why great leaders know which one the moment calls for.
We cover:
- What management does well, and where it falls short
- How mentoring builds confidence, capability and ownership
- When to manage (new starters, compliance, performance issues, urgent fixes) and when to mentor (capable but unsure team members, repeat questions, people ready to step up)
- Five simple steps to shift from managing to mentoring, from asking before you answer to recognising progress, not just results
“Managing gets the work done today. Mentoring builds the team that gets it done tomorrow. The best leaders do both.”
Your challenge this week: when a team member brings you a problem, pause before you answer and ask what they would do first. It’s a small shift, but it’s where mentoring starts.
