How do you Empower your Team?

At what level do you empower your team for decision-making authority?

There are successful managers who coach and nurture their team and provide different levels of autonomy.   All teams require a leader to manage the team' direction based on established goals and management along the way to develop the strategy to achieve and surpass these goals. 

We also have managers who use empowerment as a tool for not managing.   Managers who hide behind this philosophy are not managing their team.   This type of management style has no accountability when you leave the team alone to make all the decisions.

Setting clear direction, setting attainable goals, developing a plan to focus on this direction and goals requires accountability to the manager of the team.  


Without accountability to the team leader, most teams accomplish very little.  This is the strategy the Partners at AlphaKOR have successfully implemented over the years.
